Lionel Horsnell was an English artist, born in Hertford in 1932.
He studied art at the Harrogate School of Art and Leeds University. He specialised in watercolour paintings of the Home Counties and the south coast and exhibited in several galleries.
He has been described as a Bohemian, and from the 1960s to the 1980s he liked to frequent Soho, where he drank in the Coach and Horses in Old Compton Street. He liked to travel by bicycle and often cycled around the countryside, exchanging paintings for bed and board. He died on 28 November 2011. Courtyard Arts, where he painted and socialised for many years was something of a ‘second home’ for him and held a retrospective exhibition of his works in 2012.
His works have a relaxed mellow style that belies the skill and expertise invested in their execution.

This original painting by Lionel Horsnell is watercolor on colored paper and heightened in white. It is signed in the lower right section and depicts Ringstead Bay on the famous Jurassic Coast of Dorset, near Weymouth, towards the Purbecks. The chalk cliffs of White Nothe roll down to the edge of the sea. There is a glimpse of a fence and the top of a cottage in the foreground, and a pair of small yachts in the bay, with white sails. The beach is practically deserted. The palette is warm and muted and overall this is a delightful image of a summer’s day in a place of peace and beauty.

- Jan Matulka VIEW OF THE BRONX Watercolor American Modern NYC 20th CenturyBy Jan MatulkaLocated in New York, NYVIEW OF THE BRONX Watercolor American Modern Modernism NYC 20th Century Drawing. Jan Matulka (1890 – 1972) "View of the Bronx," 15 x 20 inches. Watercolor on paper, c. 1920s. Signed lower Right. In 1907, he came to the Bronx, New York where he had a poverty-ridden childhood with a mother who tried to raise a family by herself. From 1908 to 1917, he studied at the National Academy of Design, and in 1917, received the first Pulitzer Traveling Scholarship with which he traveled and painted in the Southwest and Florida. His work from this period showed a turning towards a more abstract style, replacing his earlier realism. In 1919, he first went to Paris and then returned in 1927 on a scholarship from the National Academy. In Paris, he was exposed to Cubism, and his painting after that seemed always to carry that influence. He had his first one-man exhibit in New York City in 1925, and by 1930, he and Davis were experimenting with their version of Cubism. Concurrently for New Masses, a communist magazine, he did satiric illustrations expressing his sympathy for the working classes, and from 1929 to 1931, he taught at the Art Students League where he inspired emerging modernists such as David Smith, Dorothy Dehner, and I Rice...Category

- A Fishing Boat at Sea, Late Mid-Century Gouache on PaperLocated in Cotignac, FRFrench gouache on paper of a boat travelling the seas. The work is unsigned but dated 22/11/70. Presented in simple gilt frame with handcut mount. A really engaging and powerful painting. The artist has managed to capture the swell of the sea, the movement of the boat listing gently to one side, the slightly rusty hull, the moody sky filled with all the seagulls following behind, which suggests it might be a fishing boat. They have used a limited but strong colour palette, blues, blacks and greys and then just to highlight and catch the eye a splash of green to represent the starboard or right bow light.Category
