George Pyne (1800-1884)
Great Court, Trinity College, Cambridge
Signed G Pyne 1850
Watercolour
20.5 x 29 cm (8 x 11.5 in.)
It appears Pyne spent some time painting in Cambridge in 1849-50. This is – for Pyne – an unusually large and fine watercolour of Trinity Great Court, with King’s College chapel in the background and elegant figures in the court. It is a particularly pleasing composition.
Pyne was the elder son of William Henry Pyne, the publisher artist behind the monumental History of the Royal Residences, and son-in-law of John Varley – two founders of the Society of Painters in Watercolours. Living in Oxford from the 1850s until his death, he brought the hand of an architectural draughtsman to his views of Oxford, the works for which he is best known, but with an artist’s ability to represent the romance of old stone. His views of Cambridge and Eton also contribute to his valuable and historical record of the period
