About the Item

Bernard Myers (British, 1925–2007) HMS Belfast Oil on canvas 30 x 39.75 in. (76.2 x 101 cm) Provenance: From the estate of the artist A luminous and contemplative painting by British artist Bernard Myers, HMS Belfast depicts the iconic warship with an unexpectedly delicate touch. Rendered in a gentle, pastel-hued palette, the work evokes a sense of quiet presence rather than military grandeur. The soft brushwork and atmospheric tones lend the scene a dreamlike quality, transforming this historic vessel into a poetic symbol of memory and place. Bernard Myers was a key figure in British post-war art. Born in 1925, he trained at the Royal College of Art, where he studied alongside notable contemporaries and absorbed the modernist influences of the era. His work, often focused on maritime, industrial, and architectural subjects, is known for its gestural freedom and emotional depth. Myers exhibited widely throughout his career and held teaching posts at several art schools. His paintings are held in private and public collections across the UK. This work comes directly from the artist’s estate

1972 Gestural Oil Painting Boat in Harbor Figural Abstraction Raoul Middleman
By Raoul Middleman
Located in Surfside, FL
Raoul Middleman (born 1935 in Baltimore, Maryland) is an American painter. Middleman has been a member of the Maryland Institute College of Art faculty since 1961. American University Museum at the Katzen Center has described Middleman as a "Baltimore maestro [whose] nudes are not pretty—they are sagging, dimpled, and real. His cityscapes reveal the underbelly of post-industrial rot, his narrative paintings give contemporary life to his personal obsessions. They are intelligent, messy, and utterly masterful." From an interview with RM "I was doing abstract art. Then Roy Lichtenstein came around, and I wanted to be current. I remember Grace Hartigan said, “You’ve gotta go to New York, seize destiny by the hand.” My friend Jon Schueler took my slides up to Eleanor Ward, who had the Stable Gallery. My Pop art paintings were discovered. I moved to New York into Malcolm Morley’s old loft down on South Street. Agnes Martin was upstairs... People who interest me come from different quarters. I knew guys around Schueler, like B.H. Friedman. But I also knew the Pop world pretty well – Al Hansen, Richard Artschwager, Lichtenstein. I became friends with Raoul Hague...
