  • George Rowe Print Collection
    George Rowe Print Collection George Rowe (1796-1864) was one of 19th century England's most prolific topographical print makers, many examples of whose work, notably of Cheltenham and Gloucestershire, are included in the Art Gallery & Museum's topographical print collection. Born at Exeter in 1796, and showing his artistic talent from an early age, Rowe earned his living as a drawing master, and was first recorded as such at Hastings in 1823. It was there that he produced his first known set of topographical prints, Twenty-six Views of Picturesque Scenery of Hastings and its Vicinity, which were published, as lithographs, by a Hastings librarian in 1823. Rowe produced many more views of Sussex and Kent before returning to Exeter, probably in 1826. At Exeter, he continued Frontispiece print from his teaching and produced many prints of Devon, notably of Rowe's ‘Illustrations’, 1840, Exeter and Plymouth, and of the county's seaside resorts, showing Cambray Spa. including Sidmouth, Torquay and Lynton, where he is said to have met his future wife, Philippa Curtis. In 1832, Rowe, his wife and two young children moved to Cheltenham, perhaps to escape a cholera outbreak at Exeter, and certainly to take advantage of the potential custom offered by the rapidly expanding spa town, where he was to live for the next 20 years. At Cheltenham, Rowe continued to give drawing lessons, and also established a 'Repository of Arts', at which he sold artists' materials and undertook general printing work. He also began to produce prints of the town, which were initially published by a local librarian, although by 1834 Rowe had acquired his own lithographic printing press and was able to publish his own work.

  • Artists in Exmouth Before 1910 April Marjoram Howard Jones
    Artists in Exmouth before 1910 April Marjoram Howard Jones A considerable number of artists in the past discovered the outstanding beauty of Exmouth, with its fine coast and estuary. During the nineteenth centuryi Exmouth was frequented by many painters who were entranced by the broad estuarine views with a backdrop of hills, and by the quality of light over the sea and river. Some artists chose to settle in the town, others visited regularly or included Exmouth in their tour of the picturesque sites of Devon. Apart from the visual delights of Exmouth,ii an advantage for visitors and residents alike was the mildness of the climate and the health-giving properties of the air and seawater. The climate was “considered to be something like that of Pisa in befriending weak lungs - so mild that winter seldom sets in ‘til after Christmas”iii: for artists who wanted to work outside in the open landscape this fine weather was a very particular advantage. In 1791 Dr Jebb, the King’s doctor, declared that the “pureness and salubrity of the air” was “equal to that of the south of France”,iv and bathing machines (for access to the beneficial effects of seawater) were installed on Exmouth beach as early as 1759.v Exmouth was the earliest seaside resort to develop in Devon and the fact that it was becoming the “handsomest and most fashionable of watering places“vi meant that there was likely to be a ready market for artists’ work. Artists resident in Exmouth before 1910 The artist whom many Exmouth people associate with the town is Francis Danby ARA

  • GEORGE ROWE, Artist and Printmaker JENNY RIDD
    1 VIEWS OF GEORGIAN DEVON: GEORGE ROWE, Artist and Printmaker JENNY RIDD My snippet today is about one of Exeter’s most important and prolific lithographic printers, Georg Rowe, born in 1796. But before I talk about George, I must tell you what lithography was. Lithography was a process of producing a print by drawing on special stone, rather than on metal. It was cheap and appealing and became popular with the masses and gentry alike as a way of advertising an area, or show-casing a public building or country house, or someone of importance. Lithographs were the vignettes on life. In fact, George Rowe even called one of his daughters Vignette. When the Napoleonic Wars curtailed travel abroad or the Grand Tour, visitors flocked instead to the newly-created seaside resorts like Teignmouth or Torquay and naturally wanted a souvenir of their visit. Simultaneously, those who had made money from the wars or the Industrial Revolution sought to record their power, status and wealth by commissioning lithographic prints. These prints were effectively the postcards of the day and were an income-generating part of the vast mechanism that was the Georgian tourist industry. We’ve all seen these prints hanging on pub walls or in a Great Aunt’s drawing room – you know the ones, with the little black and gold beaded frames - but I bet we never really studied them. They were just there for decoration. Lithography was a simple process. The artist went out with his drawing pad, captured the image, and brought it back to his workshop where he painstakingly drew it on to a special soft stone, scratched with a sharp tool in reverse and with the help of a mirror.
