About the Item

Riverside, Hampshire, Oil on Canvas Painting by William Alfred Gibson Additional information: Medium: Oil on canvas 40.6 x 50.8 cm 16 x 20 in Signed William Alfred Gibson (1855–1931) was a Scottish landscape painter, known for his exceptional technical skill and subtle color harmonies. Born in Glasgow, he was largely self-taught, though he briefly studied under a student of Corot. Gibson was deeply influenced by the work of Dutch painters and the Barbizon School, particularly Corot, which shaped his artistic approach. For those looking to buy William Alfred Gibson paintings, his landscapes offer a perfect blend of technical skill and emotional resonance. Gibson's landscapes, often painted in oil and watercolor, are celebrated for their intimate and poetic qualities. He found inspiration in the natural beauty of France, England, and Scotland, particularly in areas like Herefordshire, Gloucestershire, the Forest of Dean, and later, the west coast of Scotland, especially Morar. His works frequently depict quiet waterways, woodland scenes, and tranquil landscapes, using a muted palette of grays, greens, and silver whites, though in his later years, his paintings brightened with warmer tones. A lifelong member of the Glasgow Art Club, Gibson exhibited extensively, showing at the Glasgow Institute, Royal Academy, and Royal Scottish Academy, among others. He was also instrumental in the formation of the short-lived Glasgow Society of Artists in 1902. His paintings remain part of several public collections, including those at the Aberdeen Art Gallery and Glasgow Art Gallery, and continue to be appreciated for their technical mastery and serene, reflective atmosphere.
