About the Item
Orlando Greenwood (1892-1989). The Conclave, ca. 1940. Oil on canvas, 26 x 30 inches; 34 x 38 inches framed. Estate sale stamp on verso.
Last photo in listing is an example of Christie's October 1990 Estate sale stamp which is to be used for comparison as the two examples that the piece bears are indistinct.
Painter, designer and draughtsman, born in Nelson, Lancashire. From the age of 13 he worked in his uncle’s cotton mill. After studying at Goldsmiths’ College School of Art and Army service in World War I, in the 1920s Greenwood became notable as the mill worker-turned-artist, famous for his still lifes and classical set-pieces. Greenwood painted still life and many self-portraits because he said that he was too poor to afford models, although his exhibition with Spink in 1925 was termed “a triumph” by the Daily Mail, and 28 works out of 30 were sold for £2,500. Greenwood showed widely with RBA of which he was a member, RA, Colnaghi’s, Beaux Arts Gallery and abroad. After Greenwood’s house was bombed in World War II he moved with his wife to the north, settling in 1967 in Ulpha, Cumberland, the year he gave up painting.
Greenwood had a baffling range of styles. As well as poster designs for London Underground and Great Western Railway and shop advertisements for Liberty’s and Whiteleys, his own painting ranged from nineteenth-century academic to pictures in an almost Fauve palette influenced by Cubism. Studio sale at Christie’s South Kensington, 1990. A small centenary show was held at The Bloomsbury Workshop, 1992.

MAGDALENA SPASOWICZ Studied painting under prof. Jan Cybis and graphic arts with prof. Tadeusz Kulisiewicz at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw. She received her diploma in 1953. Her works have been presented in numerous exhibitions in Poland and abroad, among others in Warsaw, London, New York, Bratislava, Washington, Moscow, Berlin, Budapest, and are to be found in private and public collections around the world. In 2017 two individual exhibition of the artists took place - at the Regional Museum in Kozienice Palace and at the Museum of Western Mazowsze in Zyrardow. Magdalena Spasowicz has been spending every single moment on painting for many years now. Most of her paintings are monochromatically coloured landscapes, of places where eye cheers soul with a sight close to heart, known and well remembered. French painting of Pissarro and Utrillo has been a very important inspiration for Magdalena Spasowicz. A desire to still-frame every moment when the artist meets Nature and beloved places is an imperative, which obliges to come back to canvas and paint, paint with a total devotion. The artistry of the places represented in the paintings of Magdalena...
