We have acquired a large archive of Osman's works form his daughter; to see the other Osman works available, please scroll down to "More from this Seller" and below it click on "See all from this Seller." Louis Osman (1914 - 1996) A Pavilion in a Private Park Pen, ink and wash 67 x 100 cm Provenance: the family of the artist. Signed lower right. Osman was as much an artist as an architect. This is likely a portfolio piece from his time studying at the Bartlett School of Architecture, and is as such a piece of architectural history as well as a beautiful Osman design. Osman was awarded a First Class degree and the Donaldson Medal of the RIBA (for the best result in his year group) by the Bartlett, and then went on to the Slade School of Art. He subsequently trained with Sir Albert Richardson – we also have several Richardson works in our collection. After the war, Osman busied himself as an architect. His work included contributions to Westminster Abbey, and Lincoln, Exeter, Ely, and Lichfield Cathedrals, Staunton Harold Church in Ashby de la Zouch for the National Trust, and of course his folly: the Grade I listed Elizabethan manor house, Canons Ashby in Northamptonshire, now a National Trust property. At Canons Ashby he established a workshop and had a team of silversmiths and goldsmiths working for him. In 1976 he made the gold enamelled coffin...

Glendun River in Northern Ireland, Oil on Canvas, Circa 1985, by 20th Century Irish Artist, Manson Blair. Art measures 16 x 12 inches Frame measures 20 x 16 inches A beautifully observed Irish landscape capturing the quiet beauty of the Glendun River, one of the celebrated Glens of Antrim in Northern Ireland. Bathed in soft natural light, the composition leads the eye gently along the tranquil river towards the rolling hills beyond, where subtle variations of greens, ochres and silvery blues evoke the ever changing atmosphere of the Irish countryside. Delicately painted winter trees frame the scene, while carefully rendered rocks and reflections bring a remarkable sense of depth, balance and serenity. Manson Blair demonstrates a refined command of realism, combining confident brushwork with an understated palette that perfectly captures the peaceful character of this unspoilt landscape. The painting possesses a timeless elegance, making it equally suited to both traditional and contemporary interiors. Works depicting the iconic scenery of County Antrim continue to enjoy enduring appeal among collectors of Irish art, particularly those seeking authentic representations of Northern Ireland's celebrated natural beauty. Presented in an elegant gilt frame, this charming original oil painting offers both decorative sophistication and lasting investment appeal, embodying the tranquillity and enduring romance of one of Ireland's most picturesque river valleys. Artist: Manson Blair Title: Glendun River, Northern Ireland Medium: Oil on Canvas Date: Circa 1985 Art Size: 16 × 12 inches (40.6 × 30.5 cm) Frame Size: 20 × 16 inches (50.8 × 40.6 cm) Condition: Presented in excellent condition and housed in an attractive gilt frame, ready to hang. This peaceful composition would make an exceptional addition to any collection of Irish landscape painting, offering a calming focal point and celebrating the timeless beauty of the Glens of Antrim. Nestled within the renowned Glens of Antrim, Glen Dun is celebrated for its unspoilt natural beauty, where rolling green hills descend through a secluded valley towards the dramatic Antrim coastline. Winding roads, ancient stone walls, rushing streams and native woodland create a landscape of remarkable tranquillity, while ever changing light and seasonal colour lend the glen an enduring sense of atmosphere. Less visited than some of its neighbouring glens, Glen Dun retains a peaceful, timeless character that has long inspired artists seeking to capture the quiet majesty and rugged beauty of Northern Ireland's countryside. Its combination of sweeping vistas, rich textures and serene isolation makes it one of the most picturesque and evocative landscapes in County Antrim. Born in 1947 near Ballyclare in Northern Ireland, Manson developed a passion for art early on in life. With a particular love for the Irish coastline, mountain ranges and lakes, Blair began his artistic career in earnest in the early 1970’s. His work has been influenced by great landscape artists such as Frank McKelvey...
