About the Item

Jane Carpanini Selwyn College Lithograph 30 x 42 cm Born in Bedfordshire, Jane Carpanini studied at Brighton College of Art and the University of Reading. Since the start of her career she has been known for meticulous architectural paintings. Wales has been a favourite subject and she has paintings in the collections of the National Library of Wales and National Museum of Wales. Her renowned series of views of Oxford and Cambridge Colleges were published by Contemporary Watercolours and have since featured regularly in the Oxford and Cambridge Today magazines. Throughout her career, Carpanini has exhibited widely and her work is held by many public and private collections both in the UK and abroad. She was a regular exhibitor with the major Societies and was the first woman officer of the Royal Watercolour Society, serving as the Honorary Treasurer and also as Vice-President. In 2003 she was also nominated for the Presidency of the RWS becoming the first ever female candidate for the post. This lithograph depicts the comings-and-goings of the main entrance at Selwyn College, Cambridge. A student cycles along Grange Road, keeping pace with their walking friend, perhaps on their way to lectures at the nearby Sidgwick Site; another student is wheeling their bike towards the nearby bicycle parking. The weather is sunny and the trees are covered in leaves. This is a lovely representation of everyday life at the university and Selwyn College.

After attending City of Oxford High School for Boys, where he excelled at rugby and cricket, he started work as an accountant in the city.

In the 1960’s Mr Messer was involved in a car accident which would end his sporting career and change his working life. When he left his job with BOAC he became a graphic designer at Pergamon Press, owned by Robert Maxwell, which allowed him time to pursue his real passion which was painting watercolours. He rose through the ranks at Pergamon to become studio manager and when he could progress no further he decided to become a full time artist, a role from which he never retired.
