Ken Moroney
Berthed - 20th Century Modern British Impressionist Boats in Harbour Painting

About the Item

A beautiful modern British impressionist oil on board depicting berthed boats in harbour, by Ken Moroney. The work is signed lower left and presented in it's original frame. Gallery labels verso. Artist: Ken Moroney (British, b.1949) Title: Berthed Medium: Oil on board Size: 10 x 8 inches (26 x 20 cm) including the frame Ken Moroney is a gifted and versatile painter, his oils being swiftly and vigorously executed. He is, for the most part, self-taught but his fluent technique is derived from the practice in “plein air” which gathered pace in the late 19th century. Among the british artists who carried this tradition into the 20th century were many of the Newlyn School, as well as artists such as Munnings, Seago and Arnesby Brown. These were all artists with a similar deep feeling for paint and atmosphere who possessed the natural ability to capture scenes of light and movement in a matter of a few brushstrokes. There are many elements of Ken Moroney’s work which bring to mind this tradition, as well as the dash and colour of continental painters such as the Belgian Frans Smeers and the Spaniard Sorolla y Bastida. Ken Moroney was born in London and has lived there most of his life. He enjoys travelling to France, Italy and Scotland all of which provide him with inspiration for his paintings. Despite his lack of formal training, he has achieved notable success and his work has featured in numerous exhibitions including ones at the Royal Academy.

    Pio Joris (Rome, 1843-1922). The Via Flaminia, a Sunday morning," 1869, with frame 160 x 83 cm. Signed P. Joris, Pio Joris attended the Istituto di Belle Arti in Rome and in 1861 he enrolled at the Accademia di San Luca, where he remained for just a year. On a visit to the 1st Esposizione Nazionale di Belle Arti of Florence in 1861 he was attracted by the naturalistic works from the Naples school. He came into contact with Domenico Morelli and Filippo Palizzi during a trip to Capri, Sorrento and Naples in 1866. In Rome, he kept company with Mariano Fortuny, whose painting, with its pleasant, captivating luministic effects, made a very strong impression on Joris. That was how he developed his own very personal artistic language, which went on to bring him remarkable commercial success on an international scale, helped by his collaboration with Paris art dealer...
