William James was active as a veduta painter between 1746 and 1771.  The only information about his artistic personality is found in Edward Edwards' Anecdotes of Painters of 1808, in which James is mentioned as a "student" or collaborator of Canaletto during his stay in England between 1746 and 1755.
