William Green was born in Manchester in 1761. He began his career as a surveyor and moved to London to study engraving. He later settled in the Lake District, the subject of many of his works. He can probably be identified as the same Wililam Green who exhibited landscape paintings at the Royal Academy between 1797 and 1801. He died in Ambleside in 1823.
