Shop in Pool Valley, Brighton – Charles Knight

One of Knight's finest pictures in the collection captures this central Brighton enclave perfectly, the artist's architectural knowledge on full display, enhanced by his adept use of earthy tones and the deft rendering of three human figures.

3-12 Charles Street, Brighton – Charles Knight

By making a feature of its omissions this sketch captures something of the fugitive nature of all seaside towns, none more so than Brighton, which wears its salty, wind-beaten patina, from building to building, with a certain nebulous pride.

23 & 24 New Road, Brighton – Charles Knight

Knight's evocative, somewhat ghostly, drawing centres on two stores in Brighton's North Laine, a hub of commerce and culture, then as now, just minutes from the Royal Pavilion.

Charles Knight

An elegant and sensitive painter, with a mastery of watercolour, Knight maintained a deep connection to his native Sussex, making him the ideal artist to capture the county for the Recording Britain project.
