Who Painted This #30 - The Answer


"A Summer Day" past times John Sell Cotman
  • Title of the artworkA Summer Day
  • Name of the creative someone who created this artwork: John Sell Cotman, 1782-1842, British
  • Date it was created: 1827 to 1837

  • Where it lives now: Yale Center for British Art, Paul Mellon Collection (B1977.14.4104)
I idea this was a rather lovely icon - which is really probable to get got been painted inwards Cotman's studio.  It came equally something of a daze to me to larn that inwards fact he rarely painted plein air when I visited the Cotman exhibition inwards Ocrtober final twelvemonth - run across Review: Cotman inwards Normandy - at Dulwich Picture Gallery.  He virtually e'er painted inwards the studio - from sketchbook observations.
John Sell Cotman (1782-1842) was a leading fellow member of the Norwich school of Artists - which was the commencement provincial fine art crusade inwards the UK...... he was really much influenced past times Thomas Girtin together with joined a sketching fellowship founded past times Girtin.
However...
I went through the whole introduction at the preview past times the Curator yesterday without i time realising that non i unmarried drawing or icon inwards the exhibition was produced past times Cotman 'on site' spell working 'plein air'. I too solely constitute that out when I asked where his sketchbooks were. Apparently at that topographic point are no sketchbooks or whatever master copy drawings. All the plant inwards beingness are studio plant made from the master copy drawings.
He was icon during what is known equally the "golden historic menstruum of English linguistic communication watercolour painting"
