Richard King
Richard King’s collections represent a lifelong dialogue with nature, light, and landscape, brought to life through his distinctive reverse painting on glass technique. Each body of work reflects his deep connection to the outdoors, from remote mountain ranges and dramatic coastlines to the shifting moods of the British countryside.
The Fragile Planet collection sits at the heart of his practice, highlighting landscapes under environmental threat while celebrating their enduring beauty. Alongside this, his seascapes, mountain scenes, and studies of light capture atmosphere, movement, and emotion with remarkable clarity and depth. Influenced by Turner yet firmly contemporary in vision, King’s collections combine technical precision with lived experience, shaped by extensive travel, expeditionary work, and a profound respect for the natural world.
