J. Edmunds (fl.1870s-)

A period artist of the last quarter of the British 19th Century, the paintings of Edmunds are as desirable for their artistic merit as they are for their strong historic content. As an artist Edmunds is one we have noticed previously, but very little public information exists about him. His technical strength and ability are unquestionably professional, yet very few of his paintings have surfaced. Each one has portrayed the most renown of the racing yachts in action straight from life.
