Joseph Crawhall (20 August 1861 – 24 May 1913) was an English artist born in Morpeth, Northumberland.
Inspired by fellow Glasgow Boy Arthur Melville, but also Japanese art, he developed a fluent, almost calligraphic way of painting where each cursive brushstroke tells as an individual mark. His favourite subjects were horses, dogs and other animals, often painted on linen or silk. He is recognised as one of the most important horse painters of the twentieth century and his intimate knowledge of animals and birds can also be clearly seen in his work.
