Henry John Yeend King was a London landscape and rustic genre painter, who spent three years in a glassworks before devoting his life to his art. He studied under William Bromley and also with Bonnat and Cormon in Paris.

Yeend King was typical of many late Victorian painters of rustic genre, often painting garden scenes with pretty girls. However, his robust \'plein air\' technique and bold palette were obviously the influence of his Paris training. He married the sister of Robert Gallon\'s wife.

He exhibited widely between 1874 and 1924, including the Royal Academy, Suffolk Street, New Watercolour Society, Grosvenor Gallery, as well as in the provinces. He was elected RBA in 1879 and RI in 1886, where he later became Vice-President. He was also a member of the Royal Institute of Oil Painters.

Works by this artist are in the Tate Gallery, Walker Art Gallery, Reading, Rochdale and Sheffield Galleries.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

British watercolour landscapes of the 19th century typically feature rural English scenery, natural light studies, and detailed rustic genre subjects executed with transparent washes on paper.

These artworks consist of watercolour pigments applied to cotton rag paper, often mounted under protective glass and set within gesso-moulded gilt or timber frames.

Authenticity is determined through verified artist signatures or inscriptions, period-appropriate paper age and foxing, characteristic brushwork techniques, and original gallery or title plaques.

Position the picture as a focal point above a sideboard, fireplace mantel, or within a curated gallery wall to introduce traditional character to modern living spaces.

Display watercolours away from direct sunlight and high humidity, preferably behind UV-filtering glass, and ensure non-acidic mounting materials are used to prevent discolouration.
