On the market for the first time, it had been owned by Joan Manning Sanders (1913-2003), herself an artist from Newlyn who knew Procter, and it was bequeathed by her to the mother of the vendor.

    Laing Art Gallery first floor display January 2019 Paintings from the collection – Label texts in display order James Orrock (1829-1913) The Solway, Criffel in the distance 1896 Oil on canvas Bequest from John Lamb 1909 Criffel, an imposing hill in south-west Scotland, rises in the distance of this view of the wide sands of the Solway Firth at low tide. James Orrock was originally from Edinburgh, and had returned to Scotland in search of wild landscape to paint. Orrock greatly admired the breezy landscape views of David Cox. Orrock was originally a dentist, first in Edinburgh and then Nottingham. He became an artist after moving to London in around 1866, and was an important collector of British art. Benjamin Williams Leader (1831-1923) Sand dunes on the Conwy, about 1868 Oil on canvas Given by Susan Cowell 2013 The sea at Conwy Bay in North Wales provides the backdrop to this study of sand dunes. It’s a slightly unusual subject for Benjamin Leader, who focused on landscapes of meadows, hills and streams. He was particularly fond of sketching in Wales, and his naturalistic style was very popular during his lifetime. As a boy, he had gone on sketching trips with his father, an amateur artist who knew and admired John Constable. Anne Redpath (1895-1965) The Valley of San Martino di Lota about 1955 Oil on canvas Purchased 1961 San Martino di Lota is on the French island of Corsica, where Scottish artist Anne Redpath spent some time in 1955. She used thick paint and bold brushstrokes to describe this windswept landscape, also using a palette knife for the rough white stones in front of the house.

    1 Antony Gormley (b. 1950), Untitled (for Francis), 1985 (Room 1), lead, plaster, polyester resin and fibreglass 1900 × 1170 × 290cm Giovanni Bellini, St Francis in Ecstasy, 1479-85 • Finding Meaning. In this room we have two apparently contrasting works. Over there an abstract work by Eva Hesse and here a human figure by Antony Gormley. They represent contrasting approaches that are explored in the following rooms. Gormley is best known for The Angel of the North (see Visual Aids) an enormous sculpture on a hill near Newcastle. • Construction. This work is called Untitled (for Francis) and was made in 1985. Like many of his other works it was made directly from his own body. He was wrapped in clingfilm by his wife, who is also an artist, and then covered in two layers of plaster. When it had dried the cast was cut from his body, reassembled and then covered in fibreglass and resin. Twenty-four sheets of lead were then hammered over the figure and soldered together. If you look closely you will see that the figure has been pierced in the breast, hands and feet by small holes cut in the lead. • St. Francis. The attitude of the eyeless figure, standing with head tilted back, feet apart and arms extended to display the palms of its hands, resembles that of a Christian saint receiving the stigmata. Stigmata are the five marks left on Christ’s 2 body by the Crucifixion although one of the wounds here is in the breast, rather than, as tradition dictates, in the side.
