Robert Gemmell Hutchinson
A native of Edinburgh, R. Gemmell Hutchison was born in 1855, and died on 22nd August 1936. After his school days he began work as a seal engraver, but soon left that occupation for painting and studied at the Art School of the Board of Manufactures.
He exhibited for the first time in the Royal Scottish Academy in 1878 and in the Royal Academy in 1881. A very early work was acquired by the Royal Association for the Promotion of the Fine Arts in Scotland. An assiduous and prolific worker, Hutchison painted in oil, water, and pastel, and with varied subjects—figures, landscapes, the seashore, domestic interiors and occasionally portraits.
As indicated, his works from the first found a ready sale, and he is represented in the permanent collections of Oldham - Glasgow, Kelvingrove Gallery; Modern Arts Association, Edinburgh; Liverpool, Walker Art Gallery ; Bolton; Toronto, Canada; Fine Art Association, Canada ; Blackpool; Hamilton Trustees, Glasgow; Paisley Art Institute; The Academy possesses “ Reflections,” bought through the Thorburn Ross Memorial Fund.
Elected as an Associate of the Royal Scottish Academy in 1901, he became an Academician in 1911. His Diploma picture is an open-air subject, entitled ‘‘ Shifting Shadows.” He was a Member of the Royal Scottish Society of Painters in Water Colours (1895), and the Royal Institute of Oil Painters. His works were premiated several times in the Paris Salon.
During summer for many years he painted at Carnoustie and latterly at Coldingham, where he died. Mr. Hutchison was a robust and original character, very vivid and downright in speech, but in his painting revealing a tenderness for the maternal and the childlike which is remarkable. And, while the influence of the Dutch followers of Israels is obvious over a large part of his career, still, his contribution to Scottish Art is very definite and important, especially in his later work, a fruition in itself expressive of his innate power.
He was survived by a widow and four daughters, his only son, also a painter, having been killed in the war.

View AllHarvest 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...

Amercan Merchant Ship in Philadelphia Harbor
By Thomas Birch
Located in Costa Mesa, CA
Thomas Birch is considered one of the earliest American Marine painters of importance both in his own time and historically, forming the foundation of what would become a great American Maritime movement in the successive years of the 19th century.
Born in England, Birch started as a landscape painter but after the War of 1812 he turned to marine subjects, taking inspiration from the best of both English and Dutch maritime traditions but refining these techniques into a very recognizable style all his own.
The work featured here is a classic of Birch's later period, when he focused specifically on maritime subjects, mainly the busy waterways of Philadelphia Harbor. Here we see one of those scenes- a series of ships plying their trade, all framed by the city as it sits across the Delaware River, with the tall, white spire of what is either Independence Hall or Christ Church to the left of the main vessel. The details of the city are particularly good in this painting, with the wharf building to the left and the long line of buildings all along the shore.
The American Merchant Bark at the center of this painting is rendered in excellent detail, from her house flag and pennant, to her rigging and sails, and down to her deck filled with the activity of crewmembers readying the ship to head out, her gilt billet...
