About the Item

A stunning early 20th century British Post-Impressionist floral oil painting by noted "Modern British" artist Elliott Seabrooke. He was a very interesting painter, and this post-Impressionist floral bouquet is a super example of his originality. Painted circa 1920 is it a large, impressive painting with influences from Paul Cezanne and the Impressionists. Signed right. Provenance Private Collection. Condition. Oil on canvas. Unframed size is 30 inches by 25 inches, in excellent condition. Housed in a fine gallery frame. Framed size is 40 by 35 inches and in good condition. Elliott Seabrooke (1886-1955) - painter, especially of landscape, and actor, born in Upton Park, Essex (his adopted name combined that of his father, Robert Elliot with his mother's, Harriet Seabrooke). Seabrooke studied at Slade School of Fine Art, 1906-11, with Henry Tonks then took a remote shed in Westmorland for £2 year as a studio, putting in his own windows, door and chimney. In World War I Seabrooke - a pacifist - served in the British Red cross, won Italy's highest award for gallantry and was an Official War Artist on the Italian front. He was tall and handsome, with a fine singing voice, which led to a thespian career. Did much work with the directors Theodore Komisarjevsky and J B Fagan, and acted with John Gielgud, Lewis Casson, Sybil Thorndike, Wendy Hiller, Charles Laughton and Ralph Richardson. Also appeared in films, including Gabriel Pascal's Major Barbara, 1941, but preferred the stage, which left the day free for painting. He showed at NEAC, LG of which he was vice-president and president during most of the 1940s, having had a first solo show at Carfax Gallery, 1912. Seabrooke was much influenced initially by Cézanne in both style and palette, Italian Futurism and Pointillism being later influences. Travelled widely in England and on the continent for landscape subjects, after 1930 living often in the Netherlands. Died in Nice and had memorial shows ar Leicester Galleries, 1951; Arts Council 1952; 1955 at Matthiesen Gallery; and in 1966 at Upper Grosvenor Galleries. There was a show at Blond Fine Art in 1979. Tate Gallery, Imperial War Museum and Arts Council hold example.

BOUQUET Modernist Flowers in a Vase, Impasto Oil Painting
By Mortimer Borne
Located in Surfside, FL
Floral painting. Flowers in a vase. Mortimer Borne, Printmaker, painter, sculptor, and educator was born in Rypin, Poland in 1902 and emigrated to the US in 1916. He studied at the National Academy of Design, The Art Students League, The Beaux-Arts Institute of Design, and with Charles Webster Hawthorne, founder of the Cape Cod School of Art in Provincetown. Painted in a thick impasto style similar in technique to Samuel Rothbort and David Burliuk. Borne himself taught at The New School for Social Research in New York City from 1945-1967. From the 1920s through the 40s he was a prolific producer of New York City cityscapes and genre scenes. In later decades, he adopted a more modernist style apparently influenced by Picasso, producing color drypoints of abstracted figures. His works were widely exhibited in museums in the U.S. and abroad from 1931 and later, including the Art Institute of Chicago, the American Institute of Graphic Arts, Museum of Modern Art, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Corcoran Gallery of Art, New York Public Library, Carnegie Institute, and Royal Society of Painters, Etchers and Engravers in London. He taught at The New School for Social Research in New York City from 1945-1967, and at the Tappan...
