Alexander Brownlie DochartyAutumnal Woodland Landscape, Ayrshire - Scottish Impressionist art oil paintingCirca 1900
Circa 1900
About the Item
This lovely Scottish Impressionist turn of the century landscape is by noted artist Alexander Brownlie Docharty. Painted circa 1900 it is a woodland landscape in Ayrshire painted up close so one feels immersed in the trees and foliage as they completely fill the canvas. The sliver birch trees in the background are much higher as growing on the top of an escarpment one can just see. The branches in the foreground reach across to frame the painting. The palette is of rich autumnal tones, with bands of greens in the foreground, reds central and the yellows and white of the silver birches beyond against a blue sky. The brushwork is fluid and the impression is slightly ephemeral an spiritual. It is worth taking the time to really look at this painting and read the different passages to fully appreciate its beauty. This is a superb example of Scottish Impressionism and of the artist's work in particular.
Signed, also signed and inscribed with location verso.

Alexander Brownlie Docharty (1862–1940) was a Scottish painter, mainly in oils. He was the second son of Joseph Docharty and Elizabeth Brownlie. Joseph Docharty was a designer of calico prints; Alexander left school at the age of thirteen to join his father. He studied part-time at the Glasgow School of Art, attending Robert Greenlees' evening classes. In 1878 Docharty's watercolour On The Cart- Pollockshaws was exhibited at the Royal Glasgow Institute of the Fine Arts. The Royal Academy accepted his painting Arran Cottages for exhibition in 1882. In the early 1880s Docharty was a designer for Inglis and Wakefield, a printing firm based at Busby. He left that firm some time before 1885, when he was based at James Docharty's studio in Bath Street, Glasgow. James was Alexander's uncle. Docharty moved to Paris in 1894 to study at the Academie Julien under Benjamin Constant and Jean-Paul Laurens. He subsequently lived at Kilkerran, Ayrshire. His Glen Falloch was exhibited in 1906 at the Glasgow Fine Arts Institute.
