About the Item

Early Twentieth Century Impressionist landscape Oil Painting of a Passing Storm over Ludlow , with the Castle and Dinham Bridge and Cattle in the Fields. Oil on Canvas, laid on artists board and Framed in a handmade Impressionist style Frame. This artist is one of my favourite British Post-Impressionist Painters and is famous for his Landscapes and Animal Studies. This is the first by him of Ludlow that I have owned though I do know of another in a private collection in Ludlow so he obviously spent some time here at the turn of the Twentieth century. It has lovely broad brush strokes and layers of oils with glaze on top, it is not hard to see why he was considered one of the best Twentieth Century painters and he of course famously taught Edward Seago. Bertram Priestman was born in Bradford in 1868, Priestman initially studied engineering at the Bradford Technical College before deciding to move to London to attend the Slade School of Art in 1888. Priestman first exhibited with the Royal Academy in 1889 at the age of just 21. In the years to follow, the artist participated in several exhibitions with the New English Art Club and the Goupil Galleries in London to great acclaim. Priestman is perhaps best known as a landscape painter, though he explored seascapes frequently throughout his career and was an accomplished portraitist. The artist’s most enduring works are those which capture the light and life of the lush English countryside; his early career was marked with the great celebration of his paintings of cattle and animals which inhabited his beloved pastoral environments. Priestman’s paintings of the moors of his native Yorkshire are among his most recognisable and successful works. The artist travelled frequently throughout Europe, and worked for some time in France and the Netherlands depicting panoramic vistas of vibrant rural scenes. Priestman also set up a teaching studio in Suffolk where he tutored, amongst others, Edward Seago. Priestman was elected Royal Academician in 1923. He was also a member of the Royal Institute of Oil Painters and the Royal Society of British Artists. The artist died in 1951. His work remains in several eminent regional collections throughout Britain and in the national collections of Canada and Ireland.
