A delightful genre painting of two Italian women next to a Vineyard by Karel Frans Philippeau. The scene depicts a women carrying a basket of wine grapes talking to a mother holding a sleeping baby.
Karel Frans Philippeau was born in Amsterdam on 31 August 1825 to Franciscus Rolandus Philippeau and Maria Carolina Luraschi. Little is known about his early life but he studied at the Royal Academy of Visual Arts in Amsterdam before enrolling at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. He began exhibiting in Amsterdam with genre works from 1848 and at the Hague from 1849 before travelling to Italy in 1850. There he spent time in Rome, Venice and then Florence where he studied the old masters.
Philippeau was captivated by the Italian way of life and began painting scenes of rural families who often spent their time outside engaged in communal activities. Whilst on his travels, he continued to send paintings to be exhibited at the Hague. After returning to Amsterdam in 1855, he continued working as an artist and enjoyed considerable success, becoming a member of the Dutch artist’s society ‘Arti et Amicitiae’.
He later moved to Princenhage in the North Brabant province of the south Netherlands and on 2 May 1867, he married Hariette Antoinette Marie Therese England in Roermond. In addition to exhibiting in his home country, he also exhibited in England at the Glasgow Institute of Fine Arts in 1865 and 1867, Leeds in 1868, Liverpool in 1869 and the British Institution in 1873 as well as at other London galleries. He also taught art to a number of students including Willem Witsen, Johannes Frederik Hulk junior, Betsy Repelius and Cato van Hoorn.
Philippeau died in Princenhage on 10 April, 1897.
His works are held by a number of public art collections including the Glasgow Museum, Manchester Art Gallery and the Mint Museum in the US.
Presentation: The painting is housed in a new, English made gilt frame which is in excellent condition. The reverse bears an old label [sic] stating the painting is from the collection of Mrs Kemp Welch, 1886, and was most likely taken from an auction catalogue at the time. The panel also retains an old Christie’s stencil verso.
Condition: As with all of our original antique oil paintings, this work is offered in ready to hang gallery condition, having been professionally cleaned, restored and revarnished.

- Early 20th Century Worcestershire landscape oil painting of a plough teamBy David Bates b.1840Located in Nr Broadway, WorcestershireDavid Bates British, (1840-1921) The Plough Team, Bredon’s Norton Oil on canvas, signed & dated 1908, further inscribed verso Image size: 15.5 inches x 23.5 inches Size including frame: 21.5 inches x 29.5 inches A lovely landscape painting of a plough team on a country track near Bredon’s Norton by David Bates. Bredon’s Norton is a village located in the Cotswolds, on the slopes of Bredon Hill in South Worcestershire. The America women’s rights activist Victoria Woodhull Martin moved to the village in 1901 and by 1908 had set up an agricultural school for women at her Norton’s Park estate. The Antarctic explore Raymond Priestley also lived there. Although Bates was living in Surrey at the time of this painting, he would have been familiar with the area after having lived and worked in Worcestershire for some considerable time. He would have also most likely been aware of Victoria Woodhull Martin and the school. David Bates was born in March, Cambridge in 1840 to Benjamin Bates a shoe maker and Sarah Bates. By 1851, the family had moved to Upton upon Severn in Worcestershire and from 1855 Bates became an apprentice at the Royal Worcester Porcelain Works in Worcester. There he developed his artistic talent, painting flower decorations onto vases and plates. At some point after 1861, he became a full time artist and made his debut at the Royal Academy in 1863, continuing to exhibit there until 1893. He also exhibited at the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists, Suffolk Street and the Grosvenor Gallery. He married Elizabeth Higgs from Worcester in 1867 and they lived at Cherry Orchard, Bath Road in Worcester where their children were later born. Their second child John Bates Noel (1870-1927) became a landscape artist and their younger son David Samuel...Category

- 19th Century genre oil painting of a woman in a garden with two girlsBy William Stephen ColemanLocated in Nr Broadway, WorcestershireWilliam Stephen Coleman British, (1829-1904) By the Fish Pond Oil on canvas, signed & dated 1898 Image size: 23 inches x 35 inches Size including frame: 30.25 inches x 42.25 inches A beautiful painting by William Stephen Coleman of a woman with two girls in a semi classical style by a Mediterranean pond. The woman is depicted resting on a terrace with her young daughter asleep on her lap, whilst another child catches goldfish in a bowl. This tour de force would have most likely been painted by Coleman as an exhibition piece. William Stephen Coleman was a figurative painter who was born in Horsham in 1829. He was one of 12 children born to a physician named William Thomas Coleman and his wife Henrietta (née Dendy). Three of his siblings Rebecca Coleman (b1837), Helen Cordelia Angell (1847–1884) and George Coleman also became artists, inheriting their artistic talent from their mother’s side of the family. Coleman developed an interest in nature from an early age, producing drawings as a hobby. Despite his ability, he initially followed in his father’s footsteps and trained as a surgeon. However, this proved unsuccessful and by the age of 21 he had turned back to art, later gaining employment with the Dalziel Brothers, a firm of wood engravers who specialised in natural history illustrations. Sometime during the late 1850’s he moved to London where he married his first wife Henrietta Augusta Boultbee in 1858. Around the same time, he began producing illustrations for books; the first of which was entitled ‘Common Objects of the Country’ and published in 1858. He subsequently published two of his own books ‘Our Woodlands. Heaths, and Hedges’ in 1859 and ‘British Butterflies’ in 1860. After the death of his wife in 1860, his sister Rebecca and brother George went to live with him in Garway Road, Paddington. Rebecca would often assist him with the wood blocks for his illustrations. As well as working as an engraver, he also began producing classically influenced paintings featuring figures in landscapes. Initially these were executed in watercolours but later extended to oil paintings. He began exhibiting at the Dudley Gallery in 1865 and was one of the original committee members. He continued to exhibit there until 1879 and was a committee member up until 1881. By 1869, he had also begun to work on pottery decoration and in 1871 was asked by Minton’s to establish an Art Pottery Studio at Kensington Gore. Whilst at Minton’s, he produced figure designs for their ceramic ware. His sister Rebecca also worked at Minton’s and they moved to Belle Vue in Chelsea to be closer to the studio. From 1881, he lived at 3 St John’s Wood Studios, Queens Terrace in Paddington and in 1888 moved to 43 Broadhurst Gardens in Hampstead. In 1893 one of his classically inspired works ‘The Gold Fish Bowl...Category
