About the Item
Henri Émilien Rousseau
French 1875 – 1933
Portrait of the Arabian Horse Moscow
Oil on board, signed lower left
Image size: 15 x 18 inches
This splendid rendition of the horse by Rousseau captures the beauty of the animal, its muscles and pose.
Henri Emilien Rousseau was born in Cairo in 1875. Among the French Orientalists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Henri Emilien Rousseau occupies a prominent place, thanks in particular to his remarkable representations of Arabian horses.
He was a pupil of Jean-Léon Gérôme, the most famous French Orientalist after Delacroix. Henri was awarded the second Grand Prix de Rome in 1900. Thanks to a travel grant, he first visited to Belgium, the Netherlands, North Africa, Spain and Italy where he admired the great masters. He returned to North Africa several times before the First World War. From 1920 to 1932, he worked in Morocco.
Henri Emilien Rousseau exhibited in Paris, at the Salon des Artistes Français, and participated in numerous international exhibitions in Belgium, Holland, England, Sweden, Brazil, Argentina, and Japan. His favourite subjects are scenes of nomadic life, movements of horsemen, vast landscapes, inspired by North Africa or the Camargue. Today, horse subjects are the most sought after by the artist.

By William Edward Frost
Located in London, GB

Image size: 5 1/2 x 4 1/2 inches (14 x 11.5 cm)
Original 19th century oval mount and frame
Provenance;
With Richard Naworth, Blackburn
William Edward Frost (September 1810 – 4 June 1877) was an English painter of the Victorian era. Virtually alone among English artists in the middle Victorian period, he devoted his practice to the portrayal of the female nude. Specialising in portraiture from about 1830, Frost painted more than 300 portraits during a 15-year period, and showed some as his first exhibits from 1836.
William Edward Frost was born in Wandsworth, then in Surrey, in September 1810. He showed artistic talent from an early age, and was encouraged in this by his father: first by his arranging drawing lessons with a Miss Evatt, a neighbouring amateur, and then, in 1825, by his introducing him to William Etty, who became his mentor. On Etty’s recommendation, he entered Henry Sass’s School for Drawing and Painting at 6 Charlotte Street, in 1826, and spent three years there, while also studying at the British Museum each winter.
Frost was educated in the schools of the Royal Academy, beginning in 1829; he established a reputation as a portrait painter before branching into historical and mythological subjects, including the subgenre of fairy painting...

Oil on canvas on board, signed lower left
Image size: 14 1/2 x 17 1/2 inches (36.5 x 44.5 cm)
Hand made frame
In this atmospheric scene a drunk is walking home, he must be causing some noise as another person is leaning out of his window to the right looking at him.
The artist has captured old London beautifully with the old bins, advertising on the walls and the cats bemused by the drunken figure. It sometimes takes an outsider such as Sancha to appreciate the beauty of the scene.

Self portrait in London
Francisco Sancha y Lengo was born in Malaga in 1874. He attended the School of Fine Arts there and studied under Joaquín Martínez de la Vega, the eccentric, influential teacher that baptised a young Picasso with champagne. Such an education served him well, and by 1897 Sancha was studying at the Royal Academy in Madrid under José Moreno Carbonero...

An Irish Rogue
Located in London, GB
Oil on board, signed and dated '44 lower right
Image size: 15 x 19 inches (38 x 48.25 cm)
Contemporary style hand made frame
This portrait of an unknown man certainly captures the personality of the chosen sitter. With hat tilted to the side, eyebrow lifted and a half smile of the man's face, one gets the impression that he is finding the whole process of having his portrait painted rather amusing.
Still in Ireland at this time, the sitter is likely to have been a friend of the artist, from Belfast.
In 1944 there was a group exhibition in Belfast held at the textile business of William Ewart & Sons on Bedford Street. Here Smith showed his works alongside the artists Colin Middleton...
