William Gowe Ferguson

c. 1632-after 1695 Scotland/Still Life

 

Brief Biography-Before going to Italy and France, William Gowe Ferguson first painted in his homeland Scotland. Then, in 1660, he lived in The Hague and worked in other Dutch cities while learning from native still-life artists. Finally, he visited England, where he mainly painted landscapes in Surrey. Ferguson died in London circa 1695. Some have attributed his still-lifes to Dutch artists such as Willem van Aelst and Jan Weenix. However, his landscapes are in the Italianate style.
