( note all this would cost £500 alone) Charles Cattermole was part of the wave of Victorian artists who were interested in reconstituting the Britain of the past in their pictures, combining an imaginative and lively vision of history with an antiquarian attention to period detail in such matters as costume, accessories and setting. This reappraisal of history painting had been gaining momentum in England since about 1830, and was prompted in large measure by the huge impact of Sir Walter Scott’s historical novels. Painters also tended now to favour scenes inspired by minor, and very often domestic, dramas instead of the more conventional heroic episodes of bygone ages. Cattermole was heavily influenced by his uncle, George Cattermole, a successful watercolourist and illustrator of Walter Scott, who specialised in historical genre. Despite the narrow focus of his art, Cattermole’s brush encompassed various distant eras in British history, his subjects ranging from the monastic and military life of the Middle Ages to swashbuckling incidents from the Civil War. His antiquarian bent enabled him to recreate the backdrop of historical anecdote with accuracy and fidelity, and his watercolours are perhaps most alluring when they illustrate scenes of wild chase, battles, duels and sieges. Cattermole showed his work at venues including the Society of British Artists, the British Institution, the Royal Academy and the Society of Painters in Water Colours, of which he became an associate in 1863 and a full member in 1870. When he first exhibited with the Society in 1864, The Art Journal said ‘he possesses qualities which will, before many years, win for him honour and reward… action, character, and composition, excellencies wherein this artist bids to be preeminent.’ Reviewing the Society’s 1869 winter exhibition in The Morning Post on 6 January, the art critic commended the ‘vigour’ and ‘refinement’ of Cattermole’s style: ‘The delicacy of colour and the neatness of touch by which his present drawings are so strikingly distinguished have not been purchased… at the cost of the still more precious qualities of dramatic action and characteristic expression. The works he now exhibits are, for the most part, interiors of churches, castles and baronial halls, which are in each case the scenes of stories so diversified in sentiment, incident, and character as to possess all the requisite freshness and variety of interest. In the uniform skill with which he treats a number of dissimilar subjects there is conclusive evidence not only of the artist’s versatility of fancy but of a still rarer gift – his capacity to adapt his manner to his theme.’ ( 19th century ) Quality piece Title: Romantic Scene Dated: around 1870 Artist: Charles Cattermole (1832 - 1900) Signature: Bottom Left Provenance: john Castagno art directory Medium : Oil painting on Canvas Condition: Excellent Country: British school Frame size : 25.5 in x 21 in ( 65 cm x 53 cm) Canvas size : 20" x 15.5" With an estimate of £4500 - £6000 In a London West End Gallery GALLERY IF YOU WISH TO VISIT THE GALLERY FOR VIEWING OR COLLECTION PLEASE CONTACT ME.

He has been living in England for over thirty years. Nearly all Salvatore Colacicco's paintings during that time have been exported to the United States and sold through Tonkins of Nantucket Island. These now adorn the walls of many a Board Room and Directors Office throughout the States. Colacicco's style of painting very much reminds one of marine artists throughout the 19th century with an obvious Italian feel. Among Colacicco's achievements were 26 panels illustrating the history and development of the paddle steamer (of which he had made a special study of those used on the Italian Lakes), painted for the Russell Cotes Museum in Bournemouth and most works by Salvatore Colacicco fetch good figures even at auction Nice back story to these pieces , We acquired them from a gentleman that went to school with the artist son in Bournemouth , His Father purchased these ones from the artist roundabout 1960 .
