Mark Harrison
The Somnambulist, Original Oil Painting

2023

About the Item

Mark Harrison's (UK based) "The Somnambulist" is an oil painting that depicts a sleepwalker on an urban street illuminated by moonlight. Sometimes they are silent epic landscapes of the Desert South West; sometimes, they are of an isolated building, maybe on the edge of a small town. I am drawn to the older buildings that are run down or deserted, where maybe it was too tough an existence and have been abandoned to the elements. But always above is the sky, often emphasizing the natural grandeur as well as the fragile isolation of human life below it. - Mark Harrison After painting nearly 500 book jackets for most major UK and USA publishers Mark Harrison gave up illustration in 2003 to concentrate on personal work for sale in fine art galleries.

  • Breton Courtship - British 19thC exhib art portrait landscape oil painting
    By George Sherwood Hunter

    A stunning 1891 exhibited oil painting by British listed artist George Sherwood Hunter. This is a glorious British Impressionist painting from his travels in Northern France. It depicts “A Breton Courtship” in blue hot summer tones and is married well with the French Barbizon frame. The couple sit opposite each other, on either side of the road they are travelling together. A fantastic painting. This is a large oil on canvas by the Scottish artist who is one of my favourite artists of the period. George Sherwood Hunter was a well travelled artist and he painted throughout Europe. He is represented in many public collections. Provenance. Exhibited: Royal Society of British Artists 1891. Condition. Oil on canvas, 30 inches by 20 inches unframed and in good condition.
