About the Item

There is something compelling about drawings and sketches made by architects. Loose and full of life this delicious little study, made on the spot, beautifully captures the essence of place. Made during one of Patterson's early tours to India it shows the gloriously majestic Palace Museum in Udaipur, Rajasthan, which sits on the highest point overlooking Lake Pichola and the City. The delicate wash of terracottas, pinks and reds offers us the feel of sun on the old stones. India Palace Museum (Udaipur), watercolour & pencil on paper, image 9.5cm x 14cm, framed 21.5cm x 24.5cm, Artist Stamp, signed in pencil bottom left, 1990 Doug Patterson studied at Nottingham and Hornsey Colleges of Art.

  • Helen Kalvak Inuit Women mid century modern art outsider folk art minimalist
    Located in Norfolk, GB
    A fabulous piece of Inuit history and a compelling drawing of everyday life for an Inuit family. The artwork is also a strong example of a natural understanding of perspective from an artist with no formal art training. The lines and mark-making are interesting both in the fact that we can see the artist working out the image by the faint rubbings out around the animals horns (see image). The lines also appear to reflect Helen's own facial beautifying tattoos; at the time of her death in 1984 was one of the last women to carry the facial tattoos of her group. The drawing was purchased from Professor Leo Bushman, part of the Faculty at the Calgary University. Bushman was helping the Co-op promote Helen Kalvak...

  • India Calcutta Company School Painting Hooghly Indian Artist after Sita Ram
    Located in Norfolk, GB
    Company School C 1820 Watercolour on Paper Image Size: 31 x 47 cm Frame Size: 49.5 x 65 cm Label Verso Abbott & Holder, London A fabulous and intriguing early, large watercolour, by an Indian artist. This painting warrants further research. The image shows European buildings on what appears to be the banks of The Hooghly River in Eastern India (Bengal). This was an area favoured and painted by early landscape artists as the Europeans were active along the river which was the prime route for the movement of goods and people. Without the group of figures to the foreground this painting could have been painted by Sita Ram or one the artists travelling with him (seen in the overall perspective and the rendition of the buildings, the boats in the water...
