John Bates Noel Art

British, 1870-1927

John Bates Noel was born in Worcester in 1870. He was the son of the landscape artist David Bates (1840–1921) but later on, changed his professional name to avoid confusion. The family lived in Worcestershire as well as in Birmingham and it was highly likely that he was encouraged and taught by his father as their subject matter and style bear similarities, although John’s compositions tend to be more fluid and looser. By the turn of the century, Noel was living in Malvern where he also taught art. He specialized in painting the rugged landscapes in and around the West Midlands, Worcestershire and North Wales. Noel exhibited at the Royal Academy from 1893–1909 and the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists between 1892–1919. He also exhibited works at some of the major galleries of the time including the Manchester City Art Gallery and the Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool.

Alfred Fontville II De Breanski Jnr. English ( b.1877- d.1957 ). Streatley Mill, River Thames, near Goring, Oxfordshire. Oil on Canvas. Signed lower left. Image size 11.4 inches x 15.4 inches ( 29cm x 39cm ). Frame size 22.2 inches x 26.4 inches ( 56.5cm x 67cm ). Depth 3.3 inches (8.5cm) Available for sale is this original oil painting by Alfred Fontville II De Breanski Jnr dating from around 1904. The painting is presented and supplied untouched in its original Edwardian fancy ornate frame of substantial depth (which is shown in these photographs) and behind glass. The gold coloring of the frame has been restored by hand in the 1990s when in previous ownership. The frame presents in a pronounced uniform color throughout. This antique painting is in very good condition, commensurate with its age. It wants for nothing and is supplied ready to hang and display. The painting is signed lower left. Part of the famous Breanski family of artists, Alfred Fontville de Breanski is known for his skilled and colorful landscapes and English garden scenes. He was born on 20th August 1877 at Lewisham, London. He was one of seven children born to the prolific British artist, Alfred De Breanski (1852-1928) and his wife Annie Roberts, also as artist. His uncle, Gustave de Breanski, was also an accomplished artist in his own right. Alfred learnt his craft from his parents, then studied at St. Martin’s School of Art under Cecil Rea, and later in Paris under Whistler. Alfred’s art emanated that of his father in subject matter and palette, though he developed a style which was less formal, and learnt to perfectly capture the light at different times of day. Breanski travelled and worked extensively throughout Scotland, Wales, the Lake District, Surrey, Sussex and Buckinghamshire. He is known to have also worked in France and Italy. His work is almost exclusively concerned with natural landscape and rustic scenes and his later work shows the influence of Impressionism. His style of painting lent itself to the early developments in poster design being pioneered by the Underground at the time. In 1915 Breanski produced a couple of posters encouraging travel to London for what was then known as the Underground Electric Railways Company. In doing so he positioned himself firmly in the modern movement of the early twentieth century, unifying so-called ‘high art’ with ‘commercial art’. This was very much in the spirit of the Parisian poster artists, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and Jules Chéret. Breanski Jnr lived in various places in the South West before making his home at 11 Robert Street...
