Jean Young
Tin Bath - British 40's art Post-Impressionist interior oil nude self portrait

circa 1945

About the Item

A stunning Post Impressionist portrait of a girl washing in The Tin Bath by the female artist Jean Young. I believe this is a self portrait as there is a pot of artists brushes in the upper right, next to the mirror. A fine circa 1945 nude portrait. A very vibrant and colourful oil on canvas. Signed lower right. Provenance. John Denham Gallery - London. Condition. Oil on canvas. Image size 30 inches by 20 inches unframed and in fine condition. Housed in a gallery frame which compliments the picture, 36 inches by 26 inches framed. Good condition. Jean Young (1914-1995) was born in London where she studied at the Farnham School of Art under Otway McCanell. Then for two years she was at the Regent Street Polytechnic School of Art with Stuart Tresilian, and in 1933-38 at Royal Academy Schools (her teachers including Walter Russell, Tom Monnington and FE Jackson). She was a medallist for composition at the Schools in 1938. Young was a member of RBA and NEAC. She held a series of solo shows in London, Canterbury and Bath; mixed show appearances including RA, LG and SWLA. Hereford City Museum and Art Gallery hold examples of her work.
