About the Item
A really striking but calm still life painting by the Modern British artist Bernard Myers.
Bernard Myers is a Modern British artist who deserves to be better known. His work successfully bridges the abstract/figurative divide in British art of the mid 20th century.
Born in 1925, he was a contemporary at the Royal College of Art of John Bratby, Frank Auerbach and Leon Kossoff. He later became a teacher at the RCA where one of his students was the inventor and entrepreneur James Dyson. Myers wrote several books on art and artists and had a studio close to the Thames in Hammersmith.
Myers died in 2007, and his work has recently been attracting attention again as a result of the release of paintings from his estate.
The details of this work are as follows:

- Modern British ink pen on paper work of Isaac Stern by Edmond Xavier KappLocated in Petworth, West SussexEdmond Xavier Kapp (British, 1890 – 1978) Isaac Stern at work Inkpen Signed, inscribed and dated ‘Isaac Stern at work Kapp 51’ (lower right) 17.1/8 x 13.7/8 in. (43.3 x 35.3 cm.) Edmond Kapp was born in Islington, London, on 5 November 1890, of American and German Jewish parentage. He gave himself the middle initial ‘X’ – sometimes said to stand for Xavier – to distinguish himself from his father Emil Kapp, who was a wine merchant. However, his parents called him ‘Eddie’ while his wife and friends knew him as ‘Peter’. During his early years, Kapp was continually ill and, while convalescing, entertained himself by drawing at home. As his health improved, he attended Dame Alice Owen’s School, Islington (1903-10), with periods at Berlin University (1909) and L’Institut Français pour les Etrangers, Paris (1909). He then read Languages at Christ’s College, Cambridge (1910-13), though spent most of his time writing and drawing. Kapp took a studio in London, and worked intensively until the outbreak of the First World War, contributing to the Daily News, the Onlooker and other periodicals. During the war, he served as a 2nd Lieutenant in the Royal Sussex Regiment on the Western Front, and then in Intelligence, rising to the position of Staff Captain on Haig’s Staff. Finally, he founded and directed the Neutral Press Counter-propaganda Section. In 1919, Kapp returned to London and, after abortive periods at three art schools, worked alone. In that year, he made his name with an exhibition of caricatures, held at Furst’s Gallery, London, and accompanied by a catalogue introduced by Max Beerbohm. This soon led to contracts with three London periodicals and a book of caricatures, Personalities, published by Martin Secker. Through the 1920s and 30s, his drawings of musicians and other personalities appeared in a wide variety of periodicals, most notably Time & Tide; were collected in further volumes; and were exhibited at the Leicester Galleries. He considered himself to be a ‘character-portraitist’, producing images of psychological not satirical power, and disliking the term ‘caricature’. Between the wars, Kapp developed other aspects of his artistic talents, the desire to study and the search for subject matter often taking him abroad. For instance, work at the British Academy, Rome, under Antonio Sciortino...Category
