About the Item
This stunning Scottish Impressionist Victorian landscape oil painting is by noted Glasgow Boy artist Robert Macaulay Stevenson. Painted circa 1899 the composition is a rising moon over a river landscape. The theme is one close to Stevenson's heart, a moonlit river landscape with wispy Impressionist trees and wonderful reflections. The shades of purple and lilac with the vibrant green and reflections on the water are just beautiful. This is an excellent example of a Glasgow Boy artist's work and a wonderful Victorian Impressionist landscape. His works are housed in the Glasgow Boys collection at Kelvingrove Gallery, Glasgow, Scotland.
Signed lower right.
Provenance: Shropshire estate.
Condition. Oil on canvas, image size is 30 inches by 25 inches and in good condition.
Frame. House an ornate gilt frame. Framed size is 37 inches by 32 inches and in good condition.
Robert Macaulay Stevenson (1854-1952) was a Scottish painter associated, like EA Hornel, with the later history of the Glasgow Boys. His elder brother was the Liberal politician Sir Daniel Macaulay Stevenson, a Lord Provost of Glasgow and Chancellor of the University of Glasgow. Stevenson was influenced by the work of the Barbizon school, especially Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot. He worked from studios in Glasgow, at Montreuil-sur-Mer in France, at Kirkcudbright, and at Bardowie Loch, Dunbartonshire. He was deeply involved in the artistic life in Glasgow and largely responsible for ensuring the Glasgow Art Club was won over to the new movement. He is best known for his paintings of river scenes, often in moonlight with use of rich impasto giving a rather gloomy but romantic aspect to the scene. Of all the Glasgow Boys it is said he was closest to Hornel and Henry in style although popular with all of them, Melville would never stay anywhere else when in Glasgow. Lavery called him the prophet of the School, having survived all the other Glasgow Boys, he became a symbol of what they stood for. In 1920 he married the Scottish artist Stansmore Dean.
Gold medal at the first Munich Secession exhibition, 1893. Diploma of honour at the second General Exposition of Fine Arts (Exposición General de Bellas Artes) in Barcelona, 1894. Silver medal at Brussels International Exposition, 1897.
Exhibited: Royal Academy 2 in 1884 and 1892 but mainly Royal Scottish Academy 17, RSW, Aberdeen Artist's Society 1894-8 and Glasgow Institute 75. He is represented in major art galleries across the world.
