Patrick Nasmyth was a native Scot, and the eldest son of the Nasmyth family of painters. His father, Alexander Nasmyth, had already made a name for himself as a landscape and portrait painter at the time of Patrick's birth and is now considered the "father of landscape painting in Scotland". Patrick - like all his ten other siblings - received art lessons from an early age. This led not only to a successful career as an artist with him, but also with his six sisters. But even without the lessons, the enthusiasm for art was evident from an early age: as soon as he could hold a pencil, he is said to have started drawing. He was a poor student and preferred to skip classes to draw flowers and trees. For him drawing and painting was a more important form of expression than writing.
Patrick Nasmyth had to fight with health problems all his life. Due to an illness at the age of 17 he became deaf, in an accident in preparation for an art excursion during his youth he lost his right arm. This led to a very introspective nature, which he kept for the rest of his life. However, these setbacks did not prevent Patrick from expressing himself artistically: he simply continued painting with his left hand. The early left-handed paintings were among the most sought-after of his paintings at the time of his death.
As a young adult, Patrick Nasmyth moved to London, where he saw paintings by the Dutch masters Meindert Hobbema and Jacob van Ruisdael in the London galleries. These influenced his art so significantly that he was nicknamed "Scottish Hobbema". The theme of his art was always the landscape in which he grew up - even after he had moved to London. According to his younger brother James, Patrick found the most pleasure in painting the sky. This is also noticeable when looking at his paintings, which often depict the Scottish landscape dark and gloomy, but the sky is usually bright and friendly. Many of his works are undated, so the order of the paintings is always discussed.
Patrick died at the relatively young age of 45, after standing for a long time on the wet bank of the Thames for a drawing and probably contracted pneumonia.
