J. L. Ponsonby
Summer on the Farmstead, 20th Century Oil Landscape Painting, New Zealand

About the Item

Oil on canvas on board Image size: 7 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches (19 x 14 cm) Hand made contemporary style frame This small-scale artwork depicts a working farmstead, in New Zealand. It is a textural work with lots of movement and life. Under blue skies luscious vegetation grows throughout this scene between the farm buildings. There are signs of life everywhere in this scene - the fence at the rear has seemingly just been constructed as spare planks of wood rest just next to it. The farm carts have just been emptied and placed to the side, in the shadows, at the end of the day. In the foreground chickens peck at the remainder of some corn that had been thrown down earlier.

Harvest Time, Oil on Canvas, 20th Century Signed British Landscape
By Septimus Edwin Scott
Located in London, GB
Oil on canvas on board, signed lower left Image size: 10 1/2 x 14 inches In the course of a long and varied career, Sep Scott exhibited in the Royal Academy and was a member of the Royal Watercolour Society. Scott produced some famous works for the railway poster campaigns in his early years. He became a book illustrator and one of the highest paid and respected of all British poster artists. Towards the end of his life, during a period when his style had gone somewhat out of vogue, he began working for Leonard Matthews and his trio of comics, Knockout, Sun and Thriller Comics Library. At first, Scott was used for picture strips, drawing all the adventures of the pirate hunter, Captain Flame, and proving to be a natural born strip artist. Then, when Matthews took over Thriller Comics Library, Scott began to paint the covers. He drew scores of full colour cover paintings, which would, as Leonard Matthews commented, “grace the walls of any stately home”, and were, in all probability, largely responsible for the success of the Library and the fact that these comics are so valued today amongst collectors. Scott also drew a number of short Robin Hood strips for the Library and some fine full-length adventure picture stories including Jane Eyre, Pride of the Ring, Secret Operator and the splendidly atmospheric, The Dark Shadows of London. For a short period, he also painted the occasional cover - and back page - for Comet and Sun and also contributed some paintings for the first Buck Jones Annual and the covers for both issues of the Billy the Kid Book...
