Ediss

Gloucester Street, Pimlico
Belgrave Square
Carlton Terrace
Smith Square, Westminster

Ediss is an Impressionism artist. 12 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Ediss painted London’s quiet streets and squares in delicate watercolours during the early 1940s. Their brush traced nearly identical views, S Smith Square, Carlton Terrace, Gloucester Street, each sheet glowing with soft light and fine detail. The scenes feel immediate, as if the artist paused just long enough to catch the damp brick and shadowed doorways of Pimlico and Eaton Square. Tap into a single sheet to stand for a moment on one of these almost-empty corners.
