Eric Hesketh Hubbard
Hampshire Landscape 20th Century Oil Original Railway Artwork

About the Item

Eric Hesketh Hubbard 1892 - 1957 Hampshire Landscape Oil on canvas, signed bottom left Image size: 24 x 18 inches (61 x 46 cm) Contemporary style hand made frame This painting was created for the Southern Railway publicity department as a possible poster design. In 1944 the artist was commissioned by the London, Midland and Scottish Railway to create several works that would be used in travel posters for Ireland and the United Kingdom. As well as Hampshire Hubbard created works depicting Padstow, New Forest, Exmoor, Dorchester and Dartmoor. Hubbard has conveyed the sentiments of the Hampshire landscape through gently rolling hills dotted with deciduous trees and a winding river. The scene shows a small hamlet with slate and thatched roofs. The inhabitants of these building seem hard at work and can be seen digging in the vegetable patches, refilling the barns and attending to the bees in their hives. Hubbard's use of flat colour, choice of subject and treatment of the landscape lend a sense of everyday familiarity to the composition. The Artist Hubbard was a painter, printmaker, furniture designer, writer and lecturer. He studied at Heatherley's School of Fine Art, Croydon School of Art and Chelsea Polytechnic. Hubbard was the founder and director of The Forest Press; for a time master of the Art Worker' Guild and the author of over a dozen books including 'A Hundred Years of British Painting 1851-1951'. He was a member of many societies connected with painting and printmaking in Britain and overseas and was the President of the Royal Society of British Artists. One of the artist's main aims was to make art accessible to ordinary people.

Joy VII - Contemporary Figurative Oil Painting, Beach View, Realism
By Julita Malinowska
Located in Salzburg, AT
Artodyssey "Julita Malinowska's paintings belong to those, which once seen - are never forgotten. The open spaces, sometimes cool and bright, at other times heavily saturated with contrasting light, create a landscape in which, like a counterpoint, we come across a figure – sometimes one, perhaps two or more. The synthetic construction of form, clean contours, and strong divisions are elements which at first sight are the defining characteristics of the artist's style. It is impossible to pass one by and remain indifferent to the subdued harmony flooding these spaces which not totally defined. The drawings, however, are somewhat different. Although they contain the same motifs, at times even the same compositions – the value strategems employed by Julita create a sense of foreboding in a world already balancing on the edge. The painterly and graphic form constructed by the artist is itself thought- provoking . The heightened tones, the light which at times goes off the scale and the almost classic contours lead us to look at Malinowska's work through the prism of classicism and the great art theories of the 17th century. Such references are quite rare in the painting of today and beyond – in art. The search for a language allowing the artist to deal with universal issues and fundamental questions in order to understand the sense of not only art, but also life, has not been too popular a phenomenom in art over the last century. The artist has, however, for the last few years quite consciously defined the sphere of her search. It could first be seen in the diploma cycle of paintings, the summary of her years of study. “The role of the painting defined then and the concious selection of formal sources became the starting point for further artistic exploration, which I have been following carefully ever since.” Julita Malinowska Born in Otwock in 1979. Studied in the Art Department of the University of Maria Curie-Sklodowska in Lublin from 1999-2000, and then from 2000-2005 in the Painting Department of the Academy of Fine Arts in Cracow. Received a Sokrates/Erasmus scholarship in 2003 for Wolverhampton University in the UK. Graduated (MA degree) from the Painting Department in 2005 with distinction. From 2008 till 2011 was making Doctoral studies (PhD degree) at the Academy of Fine Arts in Cracow. In December 2012 defended PhD degree. In 2005 won Second Prize at The Samsung Art...
