About the Item
HORACE MANN LIVENS
1862 - 1936
RICHMOND BRIDGE II
Watercolour, signed lower right
Image size: 12 x 10 inches
Framed
Livens was born in Croydon in 1862, the son of a colonial broker. He attended the Croydon School of Art whilst working at his father's office in the City. He then attended the Fine Arts Academy in Antwerp, where he met Van Gogh. Indeed, he is probably best known for having painted the earliest known portrait of the artist.
Van Gogh invited Livens to Paris, where he spent more time studying, particuarly the works of Whistler and Japanese prints. He exhibited at the Royal Academy from 1890 - 1899, as well as the NEAC, the Grosvenor gallery and abroad. Unfortunately many of his works were lost in the Blitz and in a fire in his widow's home in Harrow in 1957.

Horace Mann Livens
A talented British impressionist, Horace Mann Livens is perhaps most famous for having painted the first known portrait of his friend Van Gogh, whom he had met when he was studying at the Academy in Antwerp during 1885–1986. They remained in touch thereafter. Livens deserves to be much better known than he is, the main reason behind him not being as well known is the destruction of much of his work, firstly in the blitz and secondly in 1957 at his widow's home.
