About the Item
This late 19th-century watercolour by British artist William Stephen Coleman (1829-1904) depicts an atmospheric coastal view with sunset.
As the sun slips surreptitiously beyond the horizon, hidden by a dark backlit cloud, pinkish tints shimmer across the outgoing tide. Seagulls gather above ragged driftwood.
Coleman was an accomplished colourist and primarily known for his misty-eyed renderings of youthful subjects. He’s considered part of the aesthetic movement, which lauded ‘art for art’s sake’ and downplayed the value of deeper meaning. His landscapes are less common but still convey his desire to elevate the visual appeal of the natural world. Note the range of tones he’s adopted to describe this majestic sky.
Monogrammed/dated lower left, framed and glazed.

- Victor Wagemaekers, Open View With Country Dwellings, WatercolourBy Victor WagemaekersLocated in Cheltenham, GBThis early 20th-century watercolour by Belgian artist Victor Wagemaekers (1876-1953) depicts a view across an open field towards several cottages. It’s an accomplished naturalistic work. Here we see the characteristically flat farmland of the low countries. A wide view with a distant vanishing point. Note the rendering of the furthest trees in near-white as they disappear from view. And the smoke gently rising from the cottage chimneys. Wagemaekers was a realist and sought to capture nature as it was - in a traditional style inspired by the Flemish old masters. He was part of a movement known as ‘Le Sillon’, comprised mainly of students from the Brussels Academy. This group of traditionalists were anti-impressionism and looked back towards the glory days of Flemish artistry. His naturalistic views were usually captured in the broad fields around Brussels, particularly in Grimbergen. Signed lower right and held within a period frame. Victor Wagemaekers trained under Franz Courtens (1854-1943) and his works are held in several public collections including at the Royal Museum of Fine Arts, Antwerp, Museum Taxandria and Jakob...Category

- Paul Sandby Munn RWS, Mallevy, Merioneth, North Wales, WatercolourLocated in Cheltenham, GBThis early 19th-century watercolour by British artist Paul Sandby Munn RWS (1773-1845) depicts a riverside view at Mallevy in North Wales. Amid a hasty world where technology consumes our waking hours, few of us find the time to consider the subtle beauties of quiet watercolours. Yet, during the late 18th century, when Munn began producing his skillfully-rendered views, this style of drawing was considered an act of rebellion. Indeed, to such an extent that, together with several associates, Munn contributed to one of the most vital artistic circles in British history - the “Brothers” sketching club. Held every Saturday, the sketching club sought to raise the status of landscape watercolours from their lowly position as mere copies of nature. Fellow artists such as John Varley, Thomas Girtin and John Sell Cotman...Category
