Affleck (1874-c.1935) was a painter and etcher from Ayr who specialized in architectural subjects, and ranked with Hedley Fitton and Axel Haig.  Affleck also produced a few landscape and topographical scenes. He was of Scottish origin but settled in London having spent a lot of time travelling extensively and living for long periods in England, Belgium, France and Spain. Affleck etched many views in England, Holland, Italy, Belgium and in America. Around 1910 Affleck moved permanently to France and some of his finest art deals with French buildings and their interiors. Today, the largest collections of Affleck's original etchings are housed in the British Museum, London.
