Artist

William Hughes

William Hughes is a British Romanticism artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at National Library of Wales.

William Hughes painted still lifes and town scenes in 19th-century Britain, often capturing everyday objects and places in oils. His Still Life of Kitchen Utensils and Vegetables stacks pots, pans, and produce on a plain table, while Dolgelley in 1837 shows a quiet Welsh street lined with stone houses and shopfronts. Take a closer look at the copper pots in the still life—the way the light catches their curves.
