Dayes
Kingdom of Great Britain
Dayes is a Kingdom of Great Britain British Romanticism artist. 8 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Edward Dayes painted quiet English landscapes and views in watercolour during the late 1700s. His delicate brush captured places like Bath’s sweeping terraces and the still waters of Derwentwater, while Ely Cathedral rises in sharp, precise strokes. He also painted Saint Gregory the Great and the British Captives, showing skill beyond scenery. Look for the way he layers pale washes in Windermere to suggest distance. Slide over to see how Dayes framed Ely’s tower against a pale sky in his 1792 sheet.
