Artist

Clifford Ellis

Clifford Ellis is a British Romanticism artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Clifford Ellis painted delicate watercolours of early-1940s Bath landmarks. In 1943 he recorded the wrought-iron Gates at the Hermitage in Lansdown and the quiet churchyard tomb of Miss Ann Nelson, sister of Horatio Nelson, in Bathford. Both sheets show the same careful line and muted palette, as though he carried the same small sketchbook from one site to the next. If you like these views of Georgian Bath, tap Gates at the Hermitage to see the original sheet next.
