John Newberry - San Domenico, Perugia, 20th Century British Watercolour

1985

About the Item

JOHN NEWBERRY (Born 1934) San Domenico, Perugia Signed, inscribed with title and dated 1985 on the artist’s label attached to the backboard Watercolour Framed 17 by 25.5 cm., 6 ¾ by 10 in. (frame size 36 by 43 cm., 14 ¼ by 17 in.) Provenance: A gift from the artist to Reginald Alton (1919-2003), distinguished scholar, editor and paleographer. Newberry was born in Horsham, Sussex and educated at Bath. After national service he studied Architecture at Cambridge and Fine Art at Newcastle, graduating in 1960. He moved to Oxford where he taught at the Ruskin School of Drawing for twenty-nine years, for the last two of which he was Acting Head. He usually paints watercolours of landscapes and buildings. Working en plein air, he usually completes his work watercolour in one sitting, using white paper to give the works a natural brilliance and to capture the light and sky. He was elected an Associate of the Royal Watercolour Society in 1989 and a fully member in 1995. He also shows regularly at the Royal Academy, New English Art and Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours.
