Norwich School of Painters
The Norwich School of Painters was an art movement that emerged in the early 19th century in Norwich, England. It is known for its focus on landscape painting, particularly the depiction of the natural beauty of the Norfolk countryside. The movement was characterized by a romantic style and a preference for local subjects, often using vibrant colors and expressive brushwork.
Key figures in the Norwich School included artists like John Crome and John Sell Cotman, who were instrumental in establishing the region as a center for landscape art. The school played a significant role in the development of British landscape painting and influenced future generations of artists.
