    Three Centuries of British Art Three Centuries of British Art Friday 30th September – Saturday 22nd October 2011 Shepherd & Derom Galleries in association with Nicholas Bagshawe Fine Art, London Campbell Wilson, Aberdeenshire, Scotland Moore-Gwyn Fine Art, London EIGHTEENTH CENTURY cat. 1 Francis Wheatley, ra (1747–1801) Going Milking Oil on Canvas; 14 × 12 inches Francis Wheatley was born in Covent Garden in London in 1747. His artistic training took place first at Shipley’s drawing classes and then at the newly formed Royal Academy Schools. He was a gifted draughtsman and won a number of prizes as a young man from the Society of Artists. His early work consists mainly of portraits and conversation pieces. These recall the work of Johann Zoffany (1733–1810) and Benjamin Wilson (1721–1788), under whom he is thought to have studied. John Hamilton Mortimer (1740–1779), his friend and occasional collaborator, was also a considerable influence on him in his early years. Despite some success at the outset, Wheatley’s fortunes began to suffer due to an excessively extravagant life-style and in 1779 he travelled to Ireland, mainly to escape his creditors. There he survived by painting portraits and local scenes for patrons and by 1784 was back in England. On his return his painting changed direction and he began to produce a type of painting best described as sentimental genre, whose guiding influence was the work of the French artist Jean-Baptiste Greuze (1725–1805). Wheatley’s new work in this style began to attract considerable notice and in the 1790’s he embarked upon his famous series of The Cries of London – scenes of street vendors selling their wares in the capital.

  • Lexicon of Inverclyde's Artists 1800-1939
    Lexicon of Inverclyde’s Artists 1800-1939 This document is intended to provide an overview of artists connected to Inverclyde who were working in the period 1800-1939. It includes artists who worked in the Inverclyde area as well as those who were born in the area but who have made their career elsewhere. Inverclyde, in addition to producing many professional artists, has also been home to many amateur artists who exhibited occasionally at professional venues. They have also been included. Inevitably the surviving documentation provides less evidence for the lives and careers for these amateur artists but sources such as the census and local street directories have helped to provide some details of their background. A Anderson, Nina (active 1886-1938) Miss Nina Anderson was a painter of landscapes, flower pieces and portraits. She lived at 35 Fox Street, Greenock and in Edinburgh. She is known to have exhibited at the Royal Scottish Academy in 1889 and also at the Glasgow Institute and at the Greenock Art Club exhibitions. Two paintings by her: A Fishwife and Seascape with Rocks are in the collection of North Tyneside Council, and were painted in 1905. Anderson, T.M. (active 1886-1903) T.M. Anderson was an amateur Gourock based artist who lived at Berry Bank, Ashton between 1886 and at 47 Ashton Road, Gourock between 1902 and 1903. Anderson, William (active 1884-1886) It seems likely that William Anderson was a relation of the T.M. Anderson listed above as he is also recorded as living at Berry Bank, Ashton Gourock between 1884 and 1886.
