About the Item

Harry A. Neyland American, 1877-1958 Fishing Boats at the Dock Oil on canvas 18 by 20 in, w/ frame 25 ⅝ by 27 ⅜ in Signed lower right Harry A. Neyland — painter, sculptor, illustrator, and copyist — was born in McKean, Erie County, PA on August 9, 1877 and died in Dartmouth, MA on October 23, 1958. His compositions consist of genre, landscapes, townscapes, ships, marine, harbors, and London and Paris scenes. An expert on the whaling industry, Neyland would accompany an exhibit of marine paintings with lectures on whaling and ships. According to a 1948 Lowell "Telegraph" article, he had a one-man show of over seventy stately ship paintings at the Whistler House Museum of Art and presented his own forty-five minute motion picture of the whaling days and recent times of New Bedford. The same 1948 article stated that Neyland was a resident of the New Bedford vicinity since 1911 and, until the hurricane of 1938, maintained a studio on Cuttyhunk, an island at the entrance to New Bedford Harbor. At this time his home residence is listed as 15 Middle Street in South Dartmouth, MA. Neyland's education took place at the Zanerian Art College in Columbus, OH; the Art Students League in New York City; and the Academy Julien in Paris. He was a member of the Providence Art Club in RI. Neyland illustrated Cap'n George Fred, 1929, published by Doubleday, Doran and Co. Other works include Surf and Sunlight, Hudson Motor Car Co.; The Wanderers, Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, NY; Furled Sails, Drying Sails, The Huntress of the North, Country Club, New Bedford, MA , and memorial tablets for Whaling Enshrined, Inc. Neyland's work is represented by the Whistler House Museum of Art in Lowell, MA; the Mariner's Museum in Newport News, VA; the Old Dartmouth Historic District; the Mystic Seaport Museum in CT; and the Kendall Whaling Museum in Sharon, MA References: Who Was Who in American Art, vol.

Fishing and Sailing Boats at the Jetty
By Gyrth Russell
Located in St. Albans, GB
GYRTH RUSSELL 1892 - 1970 Picture Size: 30 x 24" (76 x 61cm) Outside Frame Size: 38 x 32" (97 x 82cm) Signed bottom left Oil on canvas The canvas is in very good condition and the painting has benefited from a light clean and a varnish. Considered one of the best coastal painters of the 20th century, Gyrth Russell was born in Halifax, Nova Scotia in April 1892. At the age of fourteen, Russell began his artistic career at Halifax School of Art, and quickly graduated to the School of Art at Boston, Massachusetts. His first job was as a draughtsman in the Public Works Department of Canada, in Halifax. It was during this period he saw and sketched the cable ship Mackay Bennett returning to her Halifax Station, her decks piled high with coffins containing bodies found after the Titanic Disaster. In 1911 Russell left Canada to study at the Academie Julian and Academie Calorossi in Paris. In 1914 at the outbreak of War, he left France for London where he was commissioned, under the command of Lord Beaverbrook, as an official War Artist for the Canadian Sector, and spent most of 1918 in Northern France painting the landscapes and coasts travelled by the Canadian military during the conflict. During the course of the First World War he worked with amongst others, Augustus John, William Orpen & Frank Brangwyn, who greatly influenced him. Russell enjoyed considerable success between the Wars, exhibiting extensively at the major galleries, and was elected to membership of the Royal Society of British Artists, the Royal Institute of Painters n Watercolours, the Royal Institute of Oil Painters and the Royal Society of Marine Artists as well as being an active member of the Langham...
