A portrait of the artist james stark, a leading member of the norwich school of painters. Inscribed in pencil at the top of the rolled sheet of paper which stark is holding, 'scenery of the/yare & waveney' (both rivers in norfolk).

Love's portrait of stark's friend j. C. Cotman is also in the npg. Date: 1830. Dimensions: height: 17.8 cm (7 in); width: 27.9 cm (10.9 in). Medium: watercolor and chalk on paper.
