John William Waterhouse: The Necklace
“This is a preliminary idea for an illustration to Keats’s Lamia (Royal Academy, 1909), the tale of a nymph trapped in the body of a serpent. Hermes sets her free, and revives her human form. The picture is a reprise of others by Waterhouse in which a beautiful nymph is seated at the edge of a pool…All…
John William Waterhouse: Female head study for ‘A Naiad’
“This highly-impressionistic sketch is a study of the female model in Waterhouse’s painting of 1893 entitled A Naiad (private collection). It anticipates his masterpiece of three years later Hylas and the Nymphs (1896, Manchester City Gallery), which depicts Hylas, a companion of Hercules, who becomes bewitched by a group of mesmerisingly beautiful water-nymphs who lure…
John William Waterhouse: Miranda, The Tempest
“With the present work Waterhouse demonstrates the breadth of his skill as Miranda braces herself against the rising storm, her thick, auburn hair and the weighty folds of her fabric gripped by the winds. The pale hand held to her breast seemingly visualizes the moment when Miranda cries “Against my very heart. Poor souls, they…

Dame Laura Knight: A Girl Reading
“A young woman, in profile is reading a letter in a sunlit landscape; she wears a white blouse and her auburn hair is pinned under a broad-brimmed straw hat, its red ribbon falling over her left shoulder. On closer inspection, spots of sunlight piercing through the weave of the hat fall on to her face…
Dame Laura Knight: The Penton Children
“Knight’s superb handling of watercolour is evident in this dazzling en plein air portrait of Stephen, Michael and Anthony Penton, painted in their grandfather’s New Forest garden. In contrast to the broad brushstrokes of her oil paintings, Laura’s delicate and detailed watercolours of this period demonstrate her highly refined technique.” READ FULL ESSAY: Richard Green…

John William Waterhouse: Good Neighbours
“The attention to realistic harmony of colour and naturalistic detail is paramount in these early pictures, which were to an extent eclipsed by the idealism of the nymphs and sorceresses that increasingly dominated his work from the 1890s onwards. The early works of Waterhouse bear comparison with the best work of the Newlyn painters, particularly…
Philip de László: Princess Ruspoli, Duchess de Gramont
For this portrait, de László has employed unusual shades of green and purple not often seen in his palette. This, and the swathe of material draped about her head, may be said to reflect the original tastes of his sitter, well known as a fashion icon, whose olive skinned beauty well suited these colours. Christie’s…
Dame Laura Knight: Gypsies at Home
“Knight first became fascinated by gypsies at Ascot race meetings where, for many years, she drew and painted them from the comfort of a shining Rolls Royce; ‘This Royal meeting was a special occasion for the gipsies [sic.]; they came in their bright satin gala dresses, hair elaborately arranged with curls soaped to their cheeks,…

Ambrose McEvoy: Vicomtesse Phyllis de Janzé
“McEvoy excelled when painting the great, the good and the glamourous and had a penchant for rebellious young women whose defiance he could ineffably translate onto canvas.

John William Waterhouse: The Soul of the Rose
“Waterhouse’s title is loosely derived from Chaucer’s dream poem, Romaunt of the Rose, itself adapted from the 13th-century French romance: Roman de la Rose by Guillaume de Lorris. The narrator embarks on a pilgrimage with the god of love, who leads him to a rose symbolizing perfect love. The poem had been treated by Waterhouse’s…

“In the winter months at Benton End when the days were shorter and the temperature dropped, Morris would paint indoors using his vast collection of plants and pots to compose imaginative arrangements which he would then translate onto canvas. The present work, painted in November 1969, is one such work and demonstrates how even in…
