David Smith RE (1920-1999)
Sulzer Engineering Works Switzerland I
Watercolour
26×36.5cm
Please note we have two works in this series - visit our storefront and search for the other one. Here abstract, angular, modernist figures filled with energy, hinting towards perhaps Epstein-like characteristics, are illuminated by the forge providing a splash of colour.
David Smith RE was a Lowestoft born painter and print-maker. After serving in the Bomber Command during the Second World War, when he was also commissioned to sketch on bombing raids over Germany, he studied at the Slade School of Fine Art before taking up a teaching post at Chelsea School of Art. He is perhaps best known for his work as the official artist on board two British Antarctic surveys in 1975-1976 and again 1979-1980, Lord Shackleton crediting him as the finest recorder of the region in the twentieth century. His other notable commissions were for Trinity House, recording Lighthouses, and Sulzer Engineering in Switzerland.

David Smith
British landscape artist David Smith was born in Essex in 1949. David has been a professional artist since 1976 and has since established himself as one of the UK’s leading landscape artists. David’s passion for the countryside is more than evident, his traditional approach along with eye catching detail gives a truly naturalistic feel to his paintings. It’s easy to immerse yourself in one of David’s works and feel the landscape as if you were strolling along the river bank on a beautiful summer’s day. Over the years, David’s paintings have sold to private and corporate clients around the world, especially in the America where he’s held many successful exhibitions. David Smith is the father of successful landscape artist Michael James Smith.

Hugh Casson (1910 - 1999)
Corpus Christi College, Cambridge
Watercolour
11 x 21
A beautiful original water of Corpus. Casson juxtaposes the sparely painted figures of undergraduates and academics with the majesty of the pale stone used to build much of the college. This watercolour was used in Casson's book "Hugh Casson's Cambridge."

Le Pont Neuf
By Lucien Génin
Located in London, GB
'Le Pont Neuf', gouache on fine art paper, by Lucien Génin (circa 1930s). The Pont Neuf is the oldest standing bridge across the river Seine in Paris, France. It stands by the western point of the Île de la Cité, the island in the middle of the river that was, between 250 and 225 BC, the birthplace of Paris. It is called 'The New Bridge' because at the time of its inauguration (built 1578-1607), it embodied a very modern look compared to other bridges which spanned the Seine. Lucien Génin has captured its beauty in this lively depiction from the 1930s. Just before the bridge is a 'Bateau Mouche' an open excursion boat that provides visitors with a view of the city from along the river. The artwork is in good overall condition commensurate with age and medium used. It has been newly frame with anti-reflective glass. Please enjoy the photos accompanying this listing. Signed by the artist in the lower left hand. Upon request a video may be provided.
About the Artist: After the devastation of the First World War, Lucien Génin (1894 - 1953) left his provincial home in the autumn of 1919 to find his fortune among the lively Parisians in the heart of Montmartre. Génin befriended the painters Frank Will, Gen Paul, Émile Boyer, Marcel Leprin...
