Collection: Harry Holland

Harry Holland is widely regarded as one of Britain’s finest figurative artists. Born in Glasgow in 1941, he spent his childhood in various parts of the UK, settling in London in 1949. He trained at St. Martin’s School of Art from 1965-69, where he first exhibited in 1969, before moving to Cardiff in 1973, where he lives and paints today. Using classical techniques to realise his contemporary figurative paintings, Harry incorporates motifs such as mythology and pathos to imbue his work with an enigmatic timelessness. Through a lifetime of dedication to his craft, Harry has established himself as a leading influence in academic art as well as modern fine art.
