Born in London, United Kingdom, William Collins was an English landscape and genre painter, as well as an etcher and artist. The son of an Irish-born picture-dealer and writer, Collins demonstrated an early aptitude for art and was an informal pupil of George Morland. He entered the schools of the Royal Academy in 1807, exhibiting there for the first time that same year. His early success included winning a medal in the life school in 1809. By 1812, he achieved fame with his work The Sale of the Pet Lamb, which was engraved by S. W. Reynolds. His popularity grew through the support of various patrons, and he was elected a Royal Academician in 1820, presenting Young Anglers as his diploma picture.
Collins was known for his sentimental paintings of poor people enjoying nature. His repertoire included diverse subjects, from coastal scenes like Scene on the Coast of Norfolk to depictions of Italian life, such as Bay of Naples. He also produced works with children as the primary focus, including Children on a Mountain Top. His technical skill was noted by John Ruskin, who praised his rendering of light in a clear, lurid, rainy atmosphere. Throughout his career, he exhibited at the Royal Academy and the British Institution, producing a vast body of work that includes:
Collins died of heart disease in London in 1847. He left behind two sons: the novelist William Wilkie Collins and the painter Charles Allston Collins.
