Artist Biography
W. A. Nicholls (fl. 1880s) A 19th-century British watercolourist, Nicholls captured the changing landscapes of Putney and Chelsea with atmospheric detail and topographical accuracy. His works, often signed and dated, document London’s riverside before urban redevelopment and remain valued for their historical insight and artistic technique. Nicholls’ technique combined watercolour with pencil and white highlights, often employing scratching-out methods to enhance texture and detail.
