John Arthur Dees
1876-1959
John Arthur Dees was a landscape, cattle and portrait painter in oil and watercolor. Dees was born in Newcastle and studied at the School of Art Gateshead winning gold medals in 1895 and 1896 but decided on a career in commerce. He first exhibited at the Berwick Club where he gained a reputation for his landscapes. Dees became friendly with several artists including John Atkinson. He exhibited at the Artists of the Northern Counties exhibition from its inception in 1905. Dees first exhibited outside the north in 1911 at the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours and in 1913 sent the first of two works to the Royal Academy. Dees exhibited throughout his life in the North and was represented by Laing Gallery, Newcastle and the Shipley Gallery, Gateshead.

Bullfighting Scene Gouache on paper
By Roberto Domingo Fallola
Located in Sitges, Barcelona
Title: Bullfighting Scene
Artist: Roberto Domingo
Technique: Gouache on paper
Dimensions: 7 x 10 in (14 x 17.3 in with frame)
Period: 1930s
Style: Spanish Impressionism with Post-Impressionist influence
Condition: Framed in a classic wooden frame
Theme: Bullfighting scene
Description of the Artwork
"Bullfighting Scene" by Roberto Domingo is a vibrant and dynamic depiction of a typical moment in a bullring. The composition captures the drama and intensity of the moment, with a mounted picador on a striking white horse as the centerpiece, flanked by a matador and assistants preparing for the spectacle. The artwork radiates energy through swift and loose brushstrokes, imbuing the scene with movement and vitality.
Domingo’s style emphasizes visual synthesis, focusing on color and form rather than meticulous detail to convey the atmosphere of the bullfighting arena. Warm tones dominate, with vibrant yellows and reds contrasting against the grays and whites of the horse and costumes, creating a captivating chromatic interplay.
The classic frame adds sobriety and balance to the piece, further highlighting the expressive power of the gouache.
