John Atkinson Grimshaw (1836 - 1893) was a Victorian-era painter, notable for his landscapes.
In 1861, at the age of 24, to the dismay of his parents, he departed from his first job as a clerk for the Great Northern Railway to pursue a career in art. He began exhibiting in 1862, under the patronage of the Leeds Philosophical and Literary Society.

Camberwell Flats by Night (1983)
David Hepher (b.1935) is best known for his paintings of buildings, mainly tower blocks, which he refers to as "urban landscapes".
‘Camberwell Flats’ is part of a series of paintings, two of which can be found at the Museum of London and another at the Middlesborough Institute of Modern Art. They reflect Hepher’s sustained focus on residential architecture, and details of ordinary, everyday life, sometimes pushing it to the brink of abstraction.

Amelia Street, SE11
This originally consisted of late 19th century tenement blocks built by James Pullen between 1886 and 1901.
During the 1980s the buildings between Manor Place and the south side of Amelia Street were demolished. The demolition of the rest of the Pullens Estate was prevented when squatters, intent on preserving the remainder of an individual late Victorian estate, occupied some of the blocks.
The south side of Amelia Street is now an open space - Pullens Gardens - created following the demolition of a tenement block.
