A View of Darwentwater from Crow-Park

Thomas Smith (died 1767) was a landscape painter and father of John Raphael Smith of Derby.[1][2] Smith painted many landscapes including historic houses like Chatsworth and views on the Lake District.

Smith's 1751 painting "An Extensive Landscape with Hunting Party" was sold for over $67,000 at an auction at Southeby's. He painted the picture in 1751, a year before his son was born and sixteen years before his death.[3]
