  • WATTS Stationary
    HELEN ALLINGHAM 21 NOVEMBER 2017 – 18 FEBRUARY 2018 WATTS GALLERY – ARTISTS’ VILLAGE This winter, Watts Gallery – Artists’ Village presents the UK’s first major public art gallery exhibition devoted to the artist Helen Allingham RWS (1848-1926). Allingham is one of the most familiar and well-loved of Victorian artists – in 1890 she became the first woman to be admitted to full membership of the Royal Watercolour Society and her work was highly acclaimed by leading contemporary critics, including John Ruskin. Despite this success there have been few exhibitions dedicated to her work. This exhibition will seek to reassert the reputation of Helen Allingham as a leading woman artist and as a key figure in Victorian art. Bringing together rarely seen works from private collections together with important paintings from public collections, the exhibition will demonstrate Allingham’s extraordinary talent as a watercolourist and will examine how she became one of the most successful creative women of the nineteenth century. Having moved to London aged just seventeen, Allingham trained at the Royal Female School of Art and the prestigious Royal Academy Schools. By 1870, she was pursuing a professional career as a graphic artist and children’s book illustrator, becoming the only female founding member of The Graphic, a new illustrated weekly magazine. Illuminating Allingham’s early career the exhibition will display an array of graphic works, including the illustrations to Thomas Hardy’s Far From the Madding Crowd when first published as a serial in the Cornhill Magazine. Following her marriage to the renowned Irish poet William Allingham in 1874, Allingham began to focus on working in watercolour producing vivid depictions of rural England.

In the past year we have been relieved to discover that, despite global financial difficulties, there is still a strong market for original drawings and watercolours of high quality. Traditionally the fields of British Watercolours on the one hand, and Old Master, 19th century and modern drawings on the other, have each had their own collectors, auctions and exhibitions. The aim of this catalogue, and indeed the aim of our shared gallery as a whole, is to blur the distinction between these collecting areas, and hopefully show that a good drawing is always a good drawing, whoever the artist and whatever the date. The present catalogue includes a wide range of British and European drawings and watercolours, placed more or less in chronological order, ranging in date from the 16th century until the present day. As a glance at the enclosed price list will show, the prices of the drawings and watercolours are equally broad in scope - from under £1,000 to around £10,000 – with a large number of interesting works at the lower end of this range.

  • Study of Breaking Waves on a Beach Watercolour
    Helen ALLINGHAM (Swadlincote 1848 - Haslemere 1926) Study of Breaking Waves on a Beach Watercolour. Signed H. Paterson at the lower right. Dedicated Mary Walen / with / H. A.’s love / April ’97 on the verso. 132 x 175 mm. (5 1/4 x 6 7/8 in.) Only a handful of early watercolours by Helen Allingham and signed with her maiden name of Paterson have survived. In the summer of 1872 the young Helen Paterson was invited by the artist Briton Riviere to join him and his family at St. Andrew’s in Scotland, where she produced her first landscape watercolours. As a contemporary biographer noted of this summer, ‘It was not, however, in the grey houses and uninteresting streets of this old northern university town, to which she first turned, that the true relations between tone and colour discovered themselves to her longing eye, but amongst the sandbanks, seaweed, and blue water which fringe its noted golf-links. For the first time the artist felt herself happy in attempting to work in any other medium than black and white.’ In its freedom of handling and vibrant colour, the present sheet is unusual among the artist’s works; another watercolour of breaking waves, closely comparable in style and technique though somewhat smaller, was on the London art market in 1986. The present sheet may be also compared stylistically with a handful of similar watercolours by Allingham, such as a view of a sunset in Venice, recently sold at auction in London. Provenance: Given by the artist to Mary Walen in April 1897, according to a dedication on the verso.

  • Let Her Paint : Ten Women Painters in Southampton City Art Gallery
    Note This version has been scanned in July 2013. The general layout has changed and the page numbers with it. There may be errors where the scanning has not picked up the text correctly. The front cover is in colour but all the other images were printed in black and white. As published, the booklet had an attractive squarish shape and each artist had a double-page spread with the image on the right. Foreword In determining the subject matter for this booklet, Gill Hedley reflected Southampton's, and her own, approach to the displays of the collection in the Gallery. Visitors are offered the opportunity to make comparisons and contrasts between objects rather than to receive a potted art history, school by school. By presenting the unexpected, one hopes to encourage some contemplation of the artists' ideas and intentions. It is part of a general attempt to make the collections accessible, which includes the provision of quizzes, information, talks, tours and participators activities.

Ten Women Painters in Southampton City Art Gallery The title "Let her paint" is deliberately challenging. It is taken from one of Hamlet's speeches and refers not to oil paint but to makeup. It is used here partly to catch the eye and interest but also to emphasise the way in which, over the last four hundred years, women artists have been "allowed" to paint.
