Benjamin Hope
British Artist, Benjamin Hope "Street Scene, England"

About the Item

Raised in Oxford, he was born into a family immersed in the arts, with his mother, Jane Hope, being a painter, and his father an academic historian, with artistic lineage tracing through his grandparents as well. Having pursued Mathematics and Physics at the University of Warwick and completing Part III of the Mathematical Tripos at Cambridge University, he furthered his academic journey by obtaining a PhD in theoretical nanoscience at Cambridge. Alongside his academic pursuits, he showcased his athleticism as a competitive runner, earning four Cambridge Blues for cross-country. In 1999, Hope was extended an invitation to join the Oxford Art Society. His artistic talents flourished, with his still-life piece titled Old Violin clinching the Oxford Times Critics' Choice award at the society's Members' Exhibition in 2001. The following year, in honor of the Bodleian Library's 400th anniversary, he was commissioned to create a commemorative still-life. Transitioning from academia in 2007, he ventured into the financial realm as a risk analyst in the City of London, aiming to accumulate resources to pursue a professional career in painting. By 2011, he made the bold decision to fully dedicate himself to painting, establishing his studio in Blackheath, South East London.

    By Jules Pierre van Biesbroeck
    Located in Paris, FR
    Cloudy landscape. Oil sketch on cardboard. Unsigned. This work will be recorded in the catalogue raisonné of the work of the artist currently in preparation. Jules Van Biesbroeck was the son of Jules Evariste van Biesbroeck, a painter of Ghent, but was born in Italy, in Portici, near Naples, while his parents were staying there. (In the 19th century many artists made educational trips to Italy). It was a long visit: the child was two years old by the time the family returned to Ghent.[1] After a short period of practice with his father, van Biesbroeck was enrolled in the Academy of Fine Arts in Ghent. His first painting, "The Shepherd" (French: Le pâtre), was sold at the Triennale in Ghent. In 1888, when he was only 15 years old, he made his debut at the "Salon des Champs-Elysées" in Paris with his monumental work "The Launch of the Argo" (French: Le lancement...

  • Winter Scene
    By Walter Launt Palmer
    Located in New York, NY
    In this prototypical oil painting, Walter Launt Palmer's title as "the painter of the American winter" can be vividly and brilliantly seen.

His pictures evoke an unreplicable natural serenity, and in this oil painting "The Winter Scene...
