This website was created in 2011 to mark the 400th Anniversary of the birth of British artist William Dobson.

It served initially as part of a timely celebration of his life and work, the result of a collaboration between Sunday Times art critic Waldemar Januszczak, ZCZ Films and a number of prestigious art institutions across Britain.

Now this website is an archive of all things Dobson: where to find his paintings and the latest research into his work.

You can also follow William Dobson on Facebook at williamdobson.tv, and on Twitter @William_Dobson.
