About the Item

Bernard Myers (British, 1925 – 2007) Still life on blue pastel on paper signed ‘B. Myers’ (lower left) 24 x 31.3/4 in. (61 x 80.7 cm.) (including frame) From the estate of Bernard Myers Bernard Myers was a prominent figure in post-war British art, known for his intuitive use of colour, bold compositional sense, and an enduring sensitivity to the everyday. A graduate of the Royal College of Art, Myers developed a personal and expressive visual language that drew on modernist influences while remaining rooted in direct observation. This work, titled Still Life on Blue, is a vibrant example of Myers’ refined pastel technique. Signed ‘B. Myers’ at the lower left and measuring 24 x 31.75 inches (61 x 80.7 cm, including frame), the composition is rich in colour and texture. Against a luminous blue ground, Myers arranges his still life elements with an effortless rhythm and painterly clarity, capturing the quiet drama of ordinary objects through confident mark-making and tonal depth. The work is offered from the estate of Bernard Myers, providing a direct connection to the artist’s studio. Still Life on Blue encapsulates Myers’ ability to infuse familiar forms with energy and atmosphere—an elegant synthesis of structure and spontaneity. Myers exhibited widely throughout his career, and his work is held in numerous public and private collections. His legacy continues through a body of work that bridges traditional genres with expressive modernism.
