Lizziejampot Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Looking for paintings by William Poole, who lived most of his life in Nether Edge. I have 5 images from the BBC Your Paintings website - including the wonderful self-portrait, (http://www.bbc.co.uk/arts/yourpaintings/paintings/self-portrait-33365) but would like to find more of Poole's paintings. He was best known as a portrait painter, but also produced landscapes, interiors and even Welsh miners. I'm currently ploughing my way through references to Poole in the Sheffield newspapers (and there are a lot of references!), but I'd be interested if anyone here has additional information about this artist. I've already established a biographical timeline for him, so it's the paintings that I'm particularly interested in, both references to pictures and also locations. I'm also trying to locate a medallion of William made by Theophilus Smith around 1876 (referred to in Sheffield Independent , 19th December 1876). All help gratefully received.
