19th Century seascape oil painting of Douglas Harbour, Isle of Man
By William Edward Webb
Located in Nr Broadway, Worcestershire
William Edward Webb British, (1862-1903) Douglas Harbour, Isle of Man Oil on canvas, signed Image size: 21.5 inches x 37.5 inches Size including frame: 33 inches x 49 inches A busy quayside painting by William Edward Webb of Douglas Harbour on the Isle of man. Fishermen in boats can be seen preparing to head ashore as other figures make their way along the quayside. William Edward Webb was born in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire in 1862 to William Benjamin Webb and Ellen Butler. His father was a printer and an artist and it is highly likely he received tuition from him. Following the death of his mother, his father remarried and moved the family to Manchester sometime after 1871. By the 1880’s, Webb had started working as an artist and later set up a studio at 30 Exchange Buildings in Manchester. He began exhibiting at the Manchester City Art Gallery from 1890, where he showed more than 60 paintings during his lifetime. He also exhibited at the Royal Academy and Walker Art Gallery Liverpool from 1892. He married Clara Foster in 1899 and the couple lived at 1 Sylvan Grove, Chorlton Upon Medlock in South Manchester with their daughter Florrie. He became friends with the artist Walter Emsley (1860-1938) who also lived in Manchester. Although he spent the rest of his life in Manchester, Webb travelled throughout the UK painting coastal and marine scenes around the main ports and harbours. He spent a great deal of time in the Isle of Mann painting numerous scenes along the coast including views of Peel and Douglas Harbour, subjects he frequently returned to. Webb painted in a highly distinctive style; loose and informal but which manages to retain the sense of perspective. He struggled with ill health and depression throughout his life which sadly led to his suicide 9 November, 1903. In 1974, a retrospective exhibition was held at The Old Customs House and Old Solent House in Lymington, which brought a new found interest in his work. His paintings are now highly sought after and are represented in many collections and Museums including the Astley Hall...

Magnificent C19th Oil Painting of Babylonian Nobleman with a Hunting Cheetah
By John Rogers Herbert
Located in London, GB
John Rogers Herbert TA, HRI (1810-1890) The Hunting Cheetah Signed, inscribed and dated ‘J.R. Herbert R.A./Paris 1853’ (lower left) Oil on canvas 37 ¼ x 28 inches, 47 1/4 x 38 inches inc. frame In the original frame Provenance Thomas Agndew & Sons Sir Edward Bates, Gyrn Castle, North Wales This striking portrait shows a Babylonian nobleman returning from a hunting expedition with his cheetah and its catch - a gazelle - which, from its distinctly curved horns and dark body stripe, can be identified as a Thomson’s Gazelle. The painting is important in a historical context as it dates from the time when archaeological findings, and their dissemination around the Western world, ensured that public fascination with Mesopotamia reached its height. Herbert was a painter of portraits, historical genre and landscapes. His early work showed a preponderance of subjects derived from Italian history, following his visit to that country in 1836. These early compositions tend to be characterised by high drama and contraposto figurative groups, such as Pirates of Istria carrying off the Brides of Venice (1839). However during the 1830s he made contact with the Nazarenes, a German group of painters who cultivated a sharp-edged, flat style. Herbert’s aesthetic became more Nazarence in tendency (with its juxtaposition of decorative surfaces, The Hunting Cheetah, dated 1853, demonstrates the longevity of their influence). 1840 proved a seminal year for Herbert personally as he converted to Catholicism, much as a result of his friendship with the architect and man of letters Augustus Welby Pugin (1810-1852). It was Pugin who created the magnificent frame in which The Hunting Cheetah is presented. In the ensuring decades Herbert concentrated on religious subjects and submitted Pope Gregory Teaching the Boys to Sing (1846) as his Royal Academy diploma work. The same year he was one of the selection of artists chosen to decorate the interior of the New Palace of Westminster, and his contributions included nine Old Testament scenes...
