BIOGRAPHY
Watts was a prominent Victorian landscape painter who lived in Hampstead at the same time as John Constable, who greatly influenced his work. Although he imitated closely many of the elements of Constable's style, Watts preserved his own distinctive style and colouring. He exhibited frequently at the Royal Academy, the British Institution and the Royal Society of British Artists.
