George Weatherill (1810-1890)

Shipping off Whitby by moonlight

Watercolour with scratching out, 14.5cm by 22cm

Provenance: Walker Galleries, Harrogate

Sold for £650
Estimated at £250 - £400


 

Relatively light time staining across sheet which is more evident within the less-worked areas. Colour depth possibly slightly tempered by this and aside from being executed in the artist's characteristically more muted palette, the overall impression remains relatively good. No evidence of cockling. Not examined out of the frame.

Auction: British, European & Sporting Art, 11th Nov, 2023

On the Kentish Downs by Algernon Cecil Newton is one of the highlights of the British, European and Sporting Art Sale on 11th November. On offer with an estimate of £8,000-12,000 (plus buyer’s premium), the picture is a fine example of Newton’s quiet yet poetic landscapes.

Further highlights include Eugene Galien-Laloue’s Paris, Winter Fruit Stalls of 1910, and “The Engagement Ring” by Arthur Claude Cooke, which was exhibited in the Royal Academy in 1901. Also of note in the sale is Lady Electra Being Led by a Groom by Lionel Edwards.

The sale will also include a Private Collection of works by Myles Birkett Foster and George Weatherill, and the last remaining paintings from the T.B. & R. Jordan Collection of Staithes Artists.
