Patric Stevenson PPRUA
Patric Stevenson PPRUA (1909-1983) - 1968 Oil, Aughagower, Ireland

1968

About the Item

A wonderful oil painting of the village of Aughagower, situated in Westport, County Mayo, western Ireland. A river flows from the heather-filled foreground to the village in the middle distance. Aughagower Round Tower can be seen just right of centre. Built between 973 and 1013, the tower would have once provided a defensive vantage point against raids from the north by the Danish, Norse-Gaels and raiding Irish clans. According to legend, the round tower capstone was struck by lightning and landed half a mile away on the hill of Tavenish. A local woman is said to have carried the heavy capstone in her apron to the church, where it still remains today. Presented in a linen slip and distressed gilt-effect wooden frame. Signed to the lower-left edge. Artist's label to the reverse which includes the date and location. On canvas board.

  • Cloudy landscape. Oil sketch on cardboard. Unsigned.
    By Jules Pierre van Biesbroeck
    Located in Paris, FR
    Cloudy landscape. Oil sketch on cardboard. Unsigned. This work will be recorded in the catalogue raisonné of the work of the artist currently in preparation. Jules Van Biesbroeck was the son of Jules Evariste van Biesbroeck, a painter of Ghent, but was born in Italy, in Portici, near Naples, while his parents were staying there. (In the 19th century many artists made educational trips to Italy). It was a long visit: the child was two years old by the time the family returned to Ghent.[1] After a short period of practice with his father, van Biesbroeck was enrolled in the Academy of Fine Arts in Ghent. His first painting, "The Shepherd" (French: Le pâtre), was sold at the Triennale in Ghent. In 1888, when he was only 15 years old, he made his debut at the "Salon des Champs-Elysées" in Paris with his monumental work "The Launch of the Argo" (French: Le lancement...
