Arthur James Stark (1831-1902) was a British painter known for his serene and atmospheric depictions of the English countryside. Born in London in 1831, Stark showed an early talent for art and pursued formal training at prestigious institutions.
Stark's artistic education began at the Royal Academy Schools in London, where he studied under renowned landscape painters of the time. He was deeply influenced by the Romantic landscape tradition, which emphasized the sublime beauty of nature and the emotional response it evoked in viewers.
Throughout his career, Stark traveled extensively throughout England, seeking inspiration in its varied landscapes. He was particularly drawn to the pastoral scenery of the English countryside, with its rolling hills, tranquil rivers, and picturesque villages. Stark had a keen eye for capturing the subtle nuances of light and atmosphere, imbuing his paintings with a sense of serenity and tranquility.
Stark's paintings often feature soft, muted colors and a sense of quiet contemplation, reflecting his deep reverence for the natural world. He was skilled at creating compositions that invited viewers to lose themselves in the peaceful beauty of the landscape, away from the hustle and bustle of urban life.
Despite his talent and dedication to his craft, Stark remained relatively unknown during his lifetime, as he preferred to focus on his art rather than seeking fame or recognition. However, his work gained greater appreciation in the years following his death, and today he is recognized as a master of the English landscape tradition.
Arthur James Stark's legacy lives on through his timeless paintings, which continue to captivate viewers with their beauty and evoke a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era. His ability to capture the essence of the English countryside has earned him a place among the most esteemed landscape painters of the 19th century.

Provenance
The Collection of Charlie Watts.
Charlie Watts, the legendary drummer of The Rolling Stones, was renowned not only for his musical prowess but also for his profound affection for animals, particularly Collies. He and his wife, Shirley, resided at Halsdon Manor in Devon, where they managed a stud farm for Arabian horses. Their estate was also home to numerous dogs, reflecting their deep commitment to animal welfare.
John Emms was a British artist best known for his dynamic and characterful paintings of dogs, especially working breeds like foxhounds, terriers, and collies. Born in Blofield, Norfolk, in 1843, Emms developed a deep connection to the countryside and rural life, which became the heart of his artistic inspiration.
While he painted horses and hunting scenes, it was his dog portraits that brought him enduring recognition. Emms had a remarkable ability to capture the individuality and spirit of each animal, portraying them not just as pets or working animals, but as noble and expressive beings. His brushwork was confident and lively, and he often painted dogs with a sense of pride, intelligence, and dignity.
Among the many breeds he painted, collies held a special place. Emms portrayed them with great sensitivity, often emphasizing their alert expressions, soft coats, and loyal nature. His collie paintings...
