  • J. A. Harington Bird The Drinking Well Oil on Canvas - POA

    J. A. Harington Bird The Drinking Well Oil on Canvas – POA

    by Darnley Fine Art

    J. A. Harington

    1846 – 1936

    The Drinking Well
    Oil on canvas, signed lower right
    Image size: 16 x 24 ½ inches (40.5 x 62.5 cm)
    Hand made Orientalist gilt frame

    Harington Bird was a painter of animals, often in watercolour. Born on 23rd May 1846, he was destined for the Army but took up painting instead. He studied at The Royal Academy Schools and in 1870, aged 24, exhibited his first picture there. A second Royal Academy exhibit, ‘On Sufferance’, followed in 1874 before Bird set off for Montreal, Canada, where he became an Associate of the Royal Canadian Academy, but in 1885, after a ten year absence, he returned to England.

    Once back, Bird resumed his Academy career and seems also to have been engaged in commissions, painting prominent English racehorses of the time. Around the turn of the century, Bird started to concentrate on the Arab horse, and probably visited North Africa to study this noble animal in its natural environment.

    On the whole, Bird painted the Arabian horse in watercolour and achieved remarkable effects in this medium, capturing in particular the sheen of the horses’ coats and the dust of the desert.

    Bird’s meticulous attention to equine anatomy and skill as an artist make him the leading horse painter of the Orientalist movement. His work is to be found in many prominent collections, including The Royal Collection at Buckingham Palace.

    This painting is a rare oil, as he mainly painted in watercolour. The horses are depicted in profile, with the classical grace of a horse on the Parthenon frieze or a Stubbs. The pose conveys their elegant configuration, fine musculature and glossy coats. The desert setting is painted more broadly, as a strong backdrop in beautiful tones of blue with flecks of gold on the sunlit sky, so as not to detract from the visual impact of the powerful horses.

    The coats of the three horses draw the viewer in to these magnificent animals. Two of the main reasons western artists travelled to the Middle East was for the strong light and the brilliant colours, both of which Bird uses to full effect in this scene.

  • Norman Wilkinson CBE PRI Rhuddlan Castle Oil on Canvas - POA

    Norman Wilkinson CBE PRI Rhuddlan Castle Oil on Canvas – POA

    by Darnley Fine Art

    Norman Wilkinson CBE PRI
    1878 – 1971
    RHUDDLAN CASTLE
    Oil on canvas, signed lower right
    Image size: 30 x 45 inches (76 x 114 cm)
    Hand made frame

    Provenance
    Commissioned by London, Midland & Scottish Railway 1929
    Private Collection

    Sir Norman Wilkinson was a successful marine painter and illustrator. He was also responsible for developing the concept of “dazzle camouflage” for British warships during the First World War. But it was as a poster artist that he reached his highest artistic level.

    In 1905, Wilkinson was commissioned by the London and North Western Railways to produce a poster advertising their rail/steam link to Ireland. Recognising the opportunity to create a new approach to railway poster design, he depicted the product as just one element of a broader landscape. It was the first time this had been done and its revolutionary concept was an important influence in the development of the pictorial poster.

    He went on to organise the celebrated commissioning of poster designs from members of the Royal Academy for the London Midland and Scottish Railway company in the 1920s. Wilkinson believed that art should play an important part in advertising. His posters were well-planned and executed in broad tones of colour with a skilful use of black to strengthen the design. He was, in his words, “the father and mother of the artistic poster on English railway stations”

    Rhuddlan Castle is a castle located in Rhuddlan, Denbighshire, Wales. It was erected by Edward I in 1277 following the First Welsh War. A popular tourist destination, it was ideal to use as a lure for people to travel to for their holidays.

    Wilkinson brings into the painting simplicity of the forms and the use of regular shapes, which clearly defined by light recalls paintings by the Renaissance artists. Using broad areas of colour the work depicts an overall pictorial coherence and makes sense in terms of paint of the light and movement in the landscape. The public were amazed on seeing these new works as Wilkinson was breaking new ground in his style of painting.

    The light breaks across the field in front of the castle, almost highlighting its importance in the landscape. Brilliantly atmospheric, the large clouds and reflections in the water set up a tension between the illusion of space and depth. Adding the cattle to the painting helps to give a sense of scale to the landscape and dashes of colour.
