1804-1886 Ireland/Landscapes

 

Brief Biography-Andrew Nicholl was born in Belfast in 1804. He spent seven years as an apprentice printer and learned to paint and draw. Nicholl exhibited at the Royal Hibernian Academy in Dublin and the Royal Academy in London through his patron Sir James Emerson Tennent. He became a full member of the RHA and co-founded the Belfast Association of Artists. Nicholl applied the sgraffito method in his paintings, where Nicholl grated the paint for a highlight effect. He died in London in 1886.
