Thomas Bowman GarvieVictorian Landscape in Swiss Village with Figures and Geese Large Oil Painting 1908
1908
About the Item
Victorian style Landscape with ladies feeding Geese in the Swiss town of Novelle. Though painted in the very brief Edwardian era, this Oil on Canvas is the epitome of a bucolic Victorian Scene. This really has it all, beautiful light, well drawn figures and a pretty landscape set in Novelle, Switzerland. This painting is the artist's Royal Academy Exhibit for the year 1909 as titled verso. Garvie was known for his charming paintings in France, Italy and Switzerland which were all painted "en plein air".
Thomas Bowman Garvie was a Northumbrian artist whose portraits include Thomas Burt, Lord Percy, Lord Armstrong, George B Bainbridge, Fred B Fenwick and Sir William and Lady Grey.
He was a prolific painter of portraits and landscapes. He studied in London and Paris completing the Grand Tour in 1898. His work faithfully observed nature: landscapes were painted plein air, as this one is, and his portraits and figurative paintings reflect a naturalistic use of light and colour. Despite his orthodox outlook, he was at the time an extremely popular portraitist of the North East and there are several of his paintings in the Laing Art Gallery, Newcastle and Cragside Art Gallery in Northumberland.
This painting was his 1909 exhibit for the Royal Academy Exhibition.
Bowman Garvie was born in Morpeth, Northumberland. He showed an early talent for drawing and was successful in gaining a place to study under Philip Hermogenes Calderon in 1883 obtaining there a scholarship for the Royal Academy where he studied until 1888 when he travelled to Paris to study at the Académie Julian under Fleury and William-Adolphe Bouguereau. For the next ten years he spent long periods painting in France, Italy and Switzerland before returning to Morpeth in 1898 to marry his long standing fiancé Isabella Grey.
Between 1914 and 1922 he held the position of Master of the Pictures at the Pen and Palette Club in Newcastle; a member of the Cullercoats Art Group; President of the North East Coast Art Club in 1937 and a member of the Art Committee, Kings College, Newcastle.
