In the early Victorian era the landed aristocracy and nobility as patron of art began to be replaced by emerging middle-class people. As a result, public taste for art dramatically changed from the old masters to the modern British painting, especially that of the domestic landscape. At the same time more and more amateurs started to enjoy sketching landscape, though it had already been widely seen among the British since the second half of the eighteenth century with the spread of the picturesque aesthetics. This paper examines the practice of amateur drawing, and shows it was considerably different from the way traditional patrons and collectors had appreciated and consumed art. It also explores the socially and economically complex relationship between amateur and professional artists.
