John Atkinson Grimshaw (6 September 1836 – 13 October 1893) was a Victorian-era artist, a "remarkable and imaginative painter"〔Christopher Wood, ''Victorian Painting'', Boston, Little, Brown & Co., 1999; p. 173.〕 known for his city night-scenes and landscapes.〔Alexander Robertson, ''Atkinson Grimshaw'', London, Phaidon Press, 1996 ISBN 0-7148-2525-5〕〔H. J. Dyos and Michael Wolff, eds., ''The Victorian City: Images and Realities'', 2 Volumes, London, Routledge, 1973.〕 His early paintings were signed "JAG," "J. A. Grimshaw," or "John Atkinson Grimshaw," though he finally settled on "Atkinson Grimshaw." ==Life== John Atkinson Grimshaw was born 6 September 1836 in Leeds. In 1856 he married his cousin Frances Hubbard (1835–1917). In 1861, at the age of 24, to the dismay of his parents, he left his job as a clerk for the Great Northern Railway to become a painter. He first exhibited in 1862, mostly paintings of birds, fruit and blossom, under the patronage of the Leeds Philosophical and Literary Society.〔Isabella Steer, ''The History of British Art'', Bath: Parragon, 2002; p. 154. ISBN 0-7525-7602-X〕 He became successful in the 1870s and rented a second home in Scarborough, which became a favourite subject. Several of his children, Arthur E. Grimshaw (1864–1913), Louis H. Grimshaw (1870–1944), Wilfred Grimshaw (1871–1937) and Elaine Grimshaw (1877–1970) became painters.
