About the Item

Monogrammed TG, Late 19th Century Symbolist Pre- Raphaelite Oil Painting Luna An intriguing painting displaying imaginative symbolism and referencing the Pre-Raphaelite movement. The painting represents a deeper meaning and goes beyond literal interpretation. In art, the moon denotes femininity, change, the cyclical nature of life and the ebb and flow of existence. Signed with the monogram TG (Thomas Gotch?) and probably English as it is painted on a Reeves of London canvas. Using the canvas stamp verso the painting can be dated to 1899. The letter “D” shows that this was one of their more expensive canvases. Condition Slight craquelure where the paint is thickest otherwise in good sound original condition. The frame is a modern replacement. Size 70cm x 34cm (88cm x 53cm framed) 27.5 x 13.5 inches (34.5 x 20.5 inches framed)

Circle of Fred MORGAN (1847-1927) c1890
Located in Holywell, GB
Circle of Fred MORGAN (1847-1927) c1890 A sensitively painted portrait, possibly a study for a larger work, of a young country girl. Indistinctly signed ** Morgan, possibly Fred. Unfortunately Fred signed in a number of different ways depending on the grandeur of his work. However, a consistent element was the colour, a reddish brown similar to the colour of the signature on this painting. I can offer no provenance with this painting, so I am selling at as circle of Morgan rather than actually by him. “Frederick Morgan ROI was an English painter of portraits, animals, domestic and country scenes. He became known for his idyllic genre scenes of childhood. Morgan was born in London to John Morgan and his wife, Henrietta Hester Clare. His father was a successful genre artist sometimes known as 'Jury Morgan' (after one of his paintings The Gentlemen of the Jury). At the age of 14, he was taken out of school by his father who then tutored him in art. At the age of 16, while still studying with his father, his first picture, The Rehearsal, was exhibited at the Royal Academy, and, after a hiatus of several years, his paintings were shown there regularly. For a while he worked as a portrait artist for an Aylesbury photographer; this training proved to be crucial as it "taught him how to observe closely and to give the greatest attention to detail." Eventually he turned to other subjects for his art, in particular idyllic genre scenes of country life and childhood. For many years, starting in 1874, Thomas Agnew & Sons' purchased all the work he produced. Although an excellent portrait artist, Morgan had problems in depicting pets and barnyard animals - he enlisted the aid of either Arthur John Elsley...
