Frederick Cuming, Modern British Impressionist still life of fruit on a table

circa 1984

About the Item

Frederick Cuming (1930-2022) Yellow kettle and fruit, Signed, Oil on board, 15 x 19½ inches ​ Provenance: Private Collection A most appealing still life by one of the United Kingdom's foremost contemporary artists. The wonderful array of colours in the fruit set off by the yellow kettle. Frederick Cuming trained at Sidcup School of Art and then at the Royal College of Art, before being awarded the Abbey Travel Scholarship to visit Italy. He was elected an Associate Member of the Royal Academy in 1964 and a full member ten years later. He exhibited widely and won many awards. His work features in many public and private collections including Monte Carlo Museum, Royal Academy of Arts, Department of the Environment, Guinness Collection, Lloyds of London, WHSmith, London Weekend Television, Cheltenham and Gloucester and the London Tourist Board. Cuming devoted his life to expressing the fleeting impressions of his surroundings, often painting the South Coast of England around Hastings and Rye where he lived. He also painted regularly in Italy. Fred attributed his love of landscape to his first experiences of when an evacuee in the Blitz; its beauty and drama was such a stark contrast to urban London.
