DIOGEN pro art magazine..No 56...WILLIAM ASHFORD....William Ashford (c.1746-1824) Born in Birmingham, William Ashford was an English artist who painted exclusively in Ireland, becoming - along with George Barret, Senior (1732-84) and Thomas Roberts (1748-1778) - one of the leading painters of the Irish landscape. His uncomplicated topographical compositions, complete with their well-ordered estates and parklands, were designed to satisfy the concerns of his landowning clientele and thus lacked the romance and atmosphere achieved by other leading Irish landscape artists.
