About the Item
England, Shropshire - Ludlow Castle, The Town and Dinham Bridge
by Leonard Machin Rowe (1880-1968)
signed front lower right and left, signed again and inscribed to the back
watercolour painting on artist's paper, unframed
sheet 9.75 x 13.75 inches
Delightful view of historic Ludlow by Leon. Rowe, likely to be 1940's based on knowledge of some other work we have in the collection and the paper used for this one. This is a scene painted in neutral tones from a high vantage point - the artist was positioned on the hillside above Dinham Bridge and the River Teme to get this view.
Most of Rowe's work we have was completed in Europe on painting trips, but a small selection are of British scenes, this is one of them.
This work forms part of an extensive watercolour collection we currently hold by Rowe.
Known as Leon Rowe, the artist was born in Staffordshire, England, in Christmas week of 1880. His career and business involved in him interior decoration, and the design and painting of theatre production stage scenery. He had a love of painting in watercolour for his own pleasure and the collection of work we currently hold by this artist shows exemplary skill. In his later years he was able to travel to Europe where much of his post war work was executed, although examples of his paintings are recorded as early as 1914, when he would have been around 25 years old. His earlier work shows his signature as Leon Rowe but the majority he signed as L M Rowe - as is the case here. He passed away in 1968.
condition report:
A small tear on the top edge has been taped at the back to stop it spreading. This sheet of paper is thinner than most others in the collection so the edges and corners do show some age with minor shallow folds and edge discolouration. Overall there is even toning, the sky area does look slightly "grubby". Image overall is nice for framing.

- Canyon CountryBy Lu HaskewLocated in Loveland, COCanyon Country by Lu Haskew Pastel 16x20" image size Landscape view of the Grand Canyon ABOUT THE ARTIST: Lu Haskew 1921-2009 "Life is good to me. Being able to go to my studio five days weekly and paint for several hours, living in a supportive community, having family and friends who encourage me--all have contributed to helping me become an artist. Being fortunate to study with some of the artists I admire has kept me painting from the garden, people and my favorite things. With the support of galleries, teaching and doing demos, how could I do anything else? My goal is to try to be the best I can be by always being a student, looking for new ideas and stretching my horizons." Upon retirement from a 33-year teaching career, Lu rented a studio in Loveland and began concentrating on her oil and watercolor painting. Learning from artists she had followed and admired throughout the years her painting became a full time career. Since 1992, she has studied with renowned painters Richard Schmid, Clyde Aspevig, Joyce Pike, and others at the Scottsdale Art...Category

- The Jurassic Coast, Dorset.By Ruskin SpearLocated in Cotignac, FRAn English watercolour on paper coastal scene signed with initials 'RS' bottom right. Presented in its original gilt wood frame under glass with trade label to the backboard from Deighton’s Strand Gallery. This gallery was well-known during the 1930s as fine art dealers and frame makers – it was located off Trafalgar square. Though he often signed with his full name Ruskin Spear's work on paper 'Hammersmith Grove' is signed in the same initials as our work and hence the attribution. This work is also stylistically similar to his other drawings of seascapes and coastal landscapes. This is a charming and fresh view of a coastal landscape probably the Jurassic coast of Dorset or his beloved Cornwall. The vertiginous composition gives it an angular almost abstract form highlighted by the contrast between the colour of the rockface, the vegetation and the blue sea. The work is in nice condition and wonderful to have the original framing. Initially influenced by Walter Sickert, the Camden Town Group...Category
