William Evans (1798-1877) was the drawing master of Eton College in England, an accomplished artist who exhibited widely in London, Dublin and Paris. He made a number of visits to the west of Ireland in 1835 and 1838 where he produced many finished watercolours and studies, mostly of Counties Galway and Mayo. His subject matter varied from panoramic landscapes to market and street scenes, and what might be called peasant structures and peasant portraits. He painted a lot in Conamara, especially in the vicinity of Renvyle and was among the very first artists to show off this wild remote area in his pictures.
