William Greaves (1852-1938) was born in Leeds and studied at Sheffield College of Art. He travelled and exhibited widely at galleries including the Royal Academy, Royal Cambrian Academy, Manchester and Liverpool. He worked mostly in oils and his subjects include landscapes in and around Wharfedale in Yorkshire and Sherwood Forest in Nottinghamshire.
This lovely pair of small oil paintings show views of the River Nidd at Knaresborough, Yorkshire. Each oil on panel measures 8"x 6" and is framed giving an overall size of 13"x 11" for each painting. Each is signed lower right. There is an old label for "S.L.Nielson, West Hartlepool" on the back of each picture.
