About the Item
A beautiful little gem of a watercolour with bold palette and most attractive composition. A rare and fabulous work by the talented son of John Sell Cotman.
John Joseph Cotman (1814-1878)
River landscape with autumn colours
Watercolour
3½ x 4¾ inches without frame and mount
11 x 12 inches with frame
Provenance: Private collection, London
The second son of John Sell Cotman (and the most original of his children). In 1824 the family moved to Norwich, and he was apprenticed to his uncle, a haberdasher. His first sketches were made with his friends J. Geldart and Arthur Dixon. In 1834 he went to London with his father, where he helped to teach at King's College and studied at the British Museum and National Gallery. In the summer he had a holiday at Cromer, and in 1835 he returned to Norwich, his more practical brother Miles Edmund taking his place with his father. From 1849 to 1851 he lectured at the Thorpe Institute and in the latter year also at Yarmouth. In about 1852 Miles Edmund came to live with him at Thorpe-by-Norwich. In 1858 he moved back to the centre of Norwich. He was always mentally unstable, alternating periods of depression and lassitude with bursts of work. His personal life was also erratic.
His work is hot and bright, in some ways a cross between the styles of his father and Samuel Palmer.

6½ x 10 inches, image only

Claude Hayes was a Dublin born painter who to avoid his father's wish to make a businessman of him ran away to sea and served on the Golden Fleece, one of the transports used in the Abyssinian expedition of 1867-68, and also spent a year in the United States. Returning to London, he studied art at Heatherley's and the Royal Academy Schools, and then in Antwerp, under Charles Verlat. He worked in Hampshire with James Aumonier and also in Surrey with William Charles Estall, whose sister he married.
Hayes exhibited widely in London and provincial centres, and was elected a member of the Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours in 1886, the Royal Institute of Oil Painters in 1883, and the Royal Scottish Society of Painters in Watercolour, 1902. He also showed at the RA, RBSA, Brook Street Art Gallery, Dudley Gallery, FAS, GI, Grosvenor Gallery, Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool, MAFA, RBA, RHA, Ridley Art Club, RSW and Walker's Gallery, London. In 1912, Claude Hayes represented England at the Venice Biennale. His work is in various public collections in England and Ireland including the Ulster Museum, Museums Sheffield, Torre Abbey Museum and the Leeds City Art Gallery. His father was the artist Edwin Hayes.
