About the Item
Rene Legrand
British Born 1953
RENE JEROME LEGRAND
British born 1953
Rene Legrand was born in Singapore of Swiss parents. He came to Britain in his formative years. After discovering his talent for painting his art teacher encouraged him to apply to the prestigious Slade School of Art, where he studied classical and old master techniques. After gaining his diploma from the Slade, Legrand secured an exhibition of his work at Heals Department Store; this was a sell out and introduced him to his first patron.
Several commissions followed and he came to establish himself as a most sought after portrait painter, which took him around the world.
After returning to England and setting up a studio in London, more commissions were quick to follow including commercial work. An example of which was a commission to do the artwork for the film "Greystoke" and for Nina Ricci's television commercial "L'air du temps".
In the late eighties commercial success was reinforced with a. series of sell out solo exhibitions at the Priory Gallery, Cheltenham. In more recent years Legrand has exhibited at many top contemporary galleries including Harrods Art Gallery.
The work of Rene Legrand is extremely popular and there will always be a demand for his attractive and colourful beach scenes, they remain highly collectable. He paints mainly in Devon and Cornwall during the summer months, capturing the delightful scenes usually featuring family and friends. The models are favourites who appear in several of his pictures including Lizzie, and more recently Sophie, who have appeared in many of his beach scenes and ballet pictures.
These paintings are highly sought after and have found their way into some important collections. It is lovely and very decorative work, invoking memories of some of the great St. Ives School painters of the past, and still highly affordable. Many people are reminded of their own childhood or their children’s, his paintings invoke fond memories of bygone times.
Over forty of his pictures have over the years been produced as prints, including Limited Edition Prints. Many have been reproduced as greetings cards also. His talent also extends to the production of limited edition sculptures, which is produced in bronze resin.

- Fisherman and Children on the Beach sorting the catchBy John Robertson ReidLocated in ludlow, GB JOHN ROBERTSON REID RBA, ROI, RI British 1851 – 1926 “Harvest of the Sea” Oil on canvas, Signed and Framed. John Robertson Reid was born in Edinburgh and studied at the Royal Scottish Academy schools before moving to Cornwall and later London. He became interested in the social-realist movement; probably influenced by Bastien-Lepage and in 1879 his “Toil and Pleasure” was hung in the Royal Academy and bought by the Chantrey Bequest. He continued to exhibit at the Royal Academy and at the Royal Society of British Artists and also the Royal Institute, he was a member of all three Institutes. Reid’s subjects – field workers, humble people – were similar to those of Bastien-Lepage, but his handling of the paint was more dynamic and reflected his training at the Scottish Academy under Chalmers and McTaggart. He was also a good colourist, and some of his coastal scenes with fishermen and women in the foreground, have rich blues and greens, of which ours is a typical example. Reid was also a fine watercolourist in a breezy style similar to that of David Cox. Not all his work was about hard work he also painted rural people at rest or playing cricket and was always capable of brilliant work; his Venetian...Category
