Dion Pears Figurative Paintings

British, 1929-1985

Dion Pears was a British painter. Born in Richmond, Surrey, in 1929, Pears was the grandson of the famed marine artist Charles Pears.

Following the 1950 Monte Carlo Rally, Pears was commissioned by the car manufacturer Renault to produce a painting of one of their winning cars. Pears soon came to be considered among the most eminent motorsport artists. He was commissioned by several celebrated motor racing drivers to represent their successes and beloved cars in his distinctive and lively style of painting, capturing lasting impressions of both the racing car and the winning driver. From Le Mans to Grand Prix, Bentley to Ferrari, Pears regularly received commissions to paint contemporary races and legendary events retrospectively.

19th Century Oil Painting of Fabbriche di Careggine Ruins in Tuscany Italy

By Edmund John Niemann

Located in Gerrards Cross, GB

‘Fabbriche di Careggine’ by Edmund John Niemann (1813-1876). Fabbriche di Careggine is the name of a Italian ghost village that today lies beneath Vagli di Sotto, a man-made lake in Tuscany. Prior to its flooding in 1953 the village was home to a community of subsistence farmers who raised sheep and Garfagnana goats. We only offer original antique artwork for sale in the finest condition it can be for its age having been professionally cleaned, conserved, and re-varnished. Clients should also note that tracked and signed for international tariff-free shipping is always complimentary. It is not uncommon for paintings by one member of famous family of artists to be mistakenly attributed to a relative; a picture by “the Elder” is erroneously credited as being by “the Younger” and the work of one brother is confused with another, and so on. In 19th century British art...
