Walter Hall was predominantly a landscape and coastal painter, but also did some portraits.
He was interested in recording the coastal industries of the time and especially the ship building industries. He was born in Lancashire and for a time lived in Bury, Lancashire. As his reputation grew and he received more commissions, he started travelling more frequently especially around the coast of The United Kingdom. For more information please contact us at:
