|
"Pinerolo (Italy)," watercolor,
Signed EGD 1928 and inscribed
l/l, signed
Guy Dawber verso,
8" x 10.5" sight, 20"
x 22.5"
frame.
About the Painting: Excellent condition; new frame.
About the Artist: A renowned architect of the Arts and Crafts
style, Guy Dawber became an expert
in the
vernacular buildings of the Cotswolds.
Later,
after his return to London, he
was a leading
exponent of the traditional English
domestic
house, alternating between stone
classical
houses and Tudor and vernacular
building
styles.
Dawber exhibited regularly at
the Royal Academy
where he was elected Associate
in 1927 and
elevated to full membership in
1935. An associate
of Sir Earnest George early in
his career,
this watercolor by Dawber is
an indication
of George's influence for leisure
drawing.
That there was a connection isn't
in doubt,
as Dawber wrote the notes for
the Memorial
Exhibition of watercolors by
Sir Ernest George
at the Fine Art Society in 1923.
