About the Item
Robert John Hammond
British, (1853-1911)
Picking Flowers
Oil on canvas, signed & dated 1900
Image size: 20.75 inches x 13.75 inches
Size including frame: 30.5 inches x 23.5 inches
A charming landscape painting of figures picking flowers next to a river by Robert John Hammond. The scene is set against the backdrop of mountains and was most likely painted in summer. The landscape appears similar to that of North Wales, an area the artist visited a number of times.
Robert John Hammond was a landscape painter born in Blackfriars, London in 1853. By the time he was 18 he had moved to Sutton Coldfield where he initially became an apprentice watchmaker before becoming a full time artist. In 1871, he married Lucy Banner, the sister of the artist Alfred Banner (1860-1914) at Kings Norton, Worcestershire. They lived at 90 Kyrwicks Lane, Bordesley in Birmingham before moving to 467 Moseley Road, Balsall Heath.
Hammond became well known for his landscapes and rural scenes of the surrounding countryside but also travelled further afield to Bristol, Bournemouth and Sheffield as well as Scotland and Wales. His son Horace Hammond (1879-1966) became a lithographer and landscape artist who used the pseudonyms of A D Bell and J Barclay.
He exhibited widely between 1882-1911 at the Royal Society of Artist, Birmingham as well as at the Manchester City Art Gallery. Hammond’s paintings show a pre-Raphaelite influence, particularly in his rendering of the landscape and use of colours. Often depicting cottages and rosy cheeked children at play they served as a reminder of a life far removed from the emerging industrial cities of the time. Towards the end of his life he lived at 3 Walford Road in Aston.
An example of his work can be found at the Birmingham Museum.
Presentation: The painting is housed in its original gilt frame which is in excellent condition.
Condition: As with all of our original antique oil paintings, this work is offered in ready to hang gallery condition, having been professionally cleaned, restored and revarnished.

Robert John Hammond
Robert John Hammond was a landscape painter born in Hackney, London, in 1853. Later on, he moved to the Midlands area, where he became well known for his landscapes and rural scenes of the surrounding countryside. Hammond lived for a time in the Balsall Heath area of Birmingham and exhibited widely between 1882–1911 at the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists as well as at the Manchester Art Gallery. Hammond’s paintings show a pre-raphaelite influence, particularly in his rendering of the landscape and use of colors. Often depicting cottages and rosy-cheeked children at play, they serve as a reminder of a life far removed from the emerging industrial cities of the time. Towards the end of his life, Hammond lived near Aston in Warwickshire, where he died in 1911. An example of his work can be found at the Birmingham Museum.
