About the Item

Bernard Myers (British, 1925 – 2007) Dahlias and fruit oil on paper signed with initials ‘B. M’ (lower left) 24 x 31.3/4 in. (61 x 80.7 cm.) (including frame) From the estate of Bernard Myers A dynamic figure in post-war British art, Bernard Myers was known for his expressive use of colour, confident composition, and deeply felt responses to both landscape and still life. Educated at the Royal College of Art, Myers emerged among a generation of artists who redefined British painting in the mid-20th century, drawing on European modernism while cultivating a distinctively lyrical style. This evocative oil on paper, titled 'Dahlias and Fruit', exemplifies Myers’ gift for transforming everyday subjects into richly textured visual meditations. Signed with his initials ‘B.M’ at the lower left and presented in a complementary frame (overall dimensions 24 x 31.75 in. / 61 x 80.7 cm), the composition balances vibrant colour with gestural brushwork, capturing the lush vitality of fresh blooms and seasonal produce. The painting comes from the estate of Bernard Myers, offering collectors a direct link to the artist’s personal studio holdings. A testament to his enduring sensitivity to light, form, and painterly rhythm, Dahlias and Fruit reflects the spirit of an artist who remained committed throughout his career to the tactile pleasures of painting. Myers' work has been exhibited widely in the UK and is held in numerous public and private collections. His legacy continues to resonate through his richly expressive body of work, spanning still life, landscape, and abstraction.
