Julius Olsson (b. Islington, London 1864, d. Dalkey, Ireland 1942)
A moonlit night off the coast of Cornwall. Signed Julius Olsson. Oil on canvas. 46×61 cm.
Julius Olsson was born to a Swedish father and an English mother in 1864 and was brought up in Islington, London. Olsson showed an early talent and was largely self-taught, although he was later to become the founding father of the St Ives School of Painting and mentor to many successful St Ives artists. Julius Olsson was a member of the Royal Academy of Art. He is known for his dramatic coastal landscapes in Cornwall, e.g. around the harbour town of St Ives. The present painting is a fine example of his skill.
