Sold

FREDERICK E.J. GOFF

Goff was born in London in 1855 where he lived, worked and died. He was a painter of the most atmospheric London topographical views, working on a small scale using a magnifying glass to paint in remarkable detail.

Goff exhibited his work from 1890 at the Royal Academy and at The New Watercolour Society. He also painted views of the Thames and Kentish landscapes.

His works provide a pictorial and historically fascinating record of London at the end of the 19th Century.
