Archive Lane holds 13 works by Thomas Webster, a British artist.
The British painter Thomas Webster, born on 10 March 1800 in London, has pursued the so-called genre art or genre painting to perfection. The style associated with everyday life is at the same time linked to the everyday scenes of often bourgeois society, which are depicted in their working, living and leisure environments. In this context, this art approaches the portrait without wanting to concretize the identity of the persons portrayed. In addition to landscape painting, this style of art was also oriented towards Romanticism, which always tried to express something uncanny, longing or love itself in its motifs. In this context, not only painters such as Thomas Cole and Joseph Mallord William Turner play a major role, but also the writers and poets Mary Shelley, Lord Byron and others. The transition between the two art movements is thus fluid, and the genre painter Thomas Webster is a representative of it.
