About the Item

ARTIST: Leonard John Fuller ROI (1891-1973) English TITLE: "The Ballet Rehearsal" MEDIUM: oil on board SIZE: 57cm x 42cm incl frame CONDITION: very good NOTES: Portrait, figure, still life and landscape painter in oil. Fuller studied art at Clapham School of Art and the Royal Academy Schools, then began his notable career as a teacher of painting and drawing at St John’s Wood Art Schools 1922–32. From 1927–37 was assistant art master at Dulwich College, where he had been educated. In 1938 Fuller moved to St Ives, Cornwall, where he founded the St Ives School of Painting, which he ran until he died. Although Fuller was a painter of a traditional kind, he was open to new ideas, advocating a more tolerant approach to modern art in 1953 in St Ives, four years after the founding of the Penwith Society of Arts, of which he was elected chairman. Advanced artists such as Terry Frost and Bob Law were to study with Fuller. Fuller exhibited widely, including RA, RSA, RP and Paris Salon, where in 1927 he gained a silver medal. Newport City Museum and Art Gallery and Plymouth City Museum and Art Gallery hold his work. Lived in St Ives.
