William Greaves (1852-1938) was born in Leeds and studied at Sheffield College of Art. He travelled and exhibited widely at galleries including the Royal Academy, Royal Cambrian Academy, Manchester and Liverpool.

It is an interesting painting historically, showing a busy farmstead at Askwith near Otley in Wharfedale, Yorkshire, a view from about 100 years ago.
