Artist Biography:

Revd Laurence George Bomford (1847–1926)

Bomford was a clergyman, scholar and skilled amateur landscape painter. Educated at Epsom College and at Cambridge, he developed a lifelong interest in theology and the natural world. His paintings—often focused on rivers, wooded valleys and rural quiet—were created with a gentle, careful eye for light and detail. Bomford’s works appear in private country house collections and still surface in regional auction rooms, where his best watercolours remain popular for their peaceful atmosphere and Victorian charm.
