Henry Stanier British Born Artist, Beautiful Orientalist Painting, 1859

About the Item

Orientalist oil on board by Henry Stanier (1831-1894) in the ornate original frame. Titled “The Narghuileh” and dated 1859. Signed on the verso Stanier and initialed H.S. Titled on the verso in the artist's hand. Measures: 12" H x 9" W inches. Frame measures: 24" H x 21" W The painting is in good condition. Henry Stanier (1831-1894) Stanier was born in Birmingham, England (1831-1894) but lived also in Spain, where he passed away in Granada in 1894. During the 1880s and 1890s Stanier often painted the view from the Mirador de San Nicolas. Inspired by the rich cultural legacy of Granada’s Moorish past, he also produced a number of carefully observed architectural subjects, sometimes incorporating picturesque or exotic figures in an Orientalist vein. Such scenes were occasionally exhibited in London at the Royal Society of British Artists, although it appears that Stanier found a ready market for his work amongst Granada’s passing foreign tourists. As a young artist in his home city of Birmingham, Stanier had been an active exhibitor of flower pieces and historical genre scenes. Later, in the 1860s and 1870s, he painted Egyptian landscapes and city views before eventually devoting himself to Spanish subjects.
