Etienne Duval Swiss 1824 - 1914 The Valley of the River Gardon, near Nimes, with the Pont du Gard in the distance Oil on board, signed with initial Image size: 8 ¾ x 16 ¼ inches Original gilt frame The Pont du Gard is an ancientRoman aqueduct bridge built in the first century AD to carry water over thirty-one miles to the Roman colony ofNemausus, now Nimes. It crosses the river Gardon near the town of Vers-Pont-du-Gard in Southern France. The Pont du Gard is the highest of all Roman aqueduct bridges, as well as one of the best preserved. It was added to UNESCO’s list of World Heritage sites in 1985 because of its historical importance. ETIENNE DUVAL Duval studied painting with Alexandre Diday, a landscape painter. In his paintings one finds his love for the calm of the landscape and the distant horizons. As an Orientalist he made his first trip to Egypt in 1869, where he followed the course of the Nile. He made a second trip in 1874 with his painter friend Louis Auguste Veillon. He made a last trip to Egypt in 1883.

William Henry James Boot 1848 - 1918 Kirkstall Abbey Oil on canvas, monogrammed lower right and dated 1876 Image size: 24 x 36 inches (61 x 91.5 cm) Exhibited Royal Academy, 1878 no. 692 Much like his contemporary, John Atkinson Grimshaw, Boot appears to have been influenced by the Pether family who were renowned painters of nocturnes. He was a book illustrator as well as a renowned oil and watercolour artist, producing engravings for the London Illustrated News and Art Journal. He wrote 'Trees and How to Paint Them' in 1883. Boot was born in Manchester. He exhibited at the Royal Academy from 1874 to 1884, showing mainly English and Continental landscapes. He is known to have travelled extensively in Germany, France and North Africa. Boot was a member of the Royal Society of British Artists and of the Arts Club, who listed him as a "painter and writer on Gothic architecture". Boot also painted domestic genre and interior scenes but tended to concentrate on landscapes. Boot lived and married in London. He is buried with his wife in Hampstead. The subject of this painting, Kirkstall Abbey in Yorkshire, was a place Boot often visited. Three figures to the right gaze admiringly at the view, with the moonlight reflected on the path they stand on.
