About the Item

Daniel Sherrin Picture Size: 24 x 42" (60 x 105cm) Outside Frame Size: 35 x 53" (87.5 x 132.5cm) Oil on Canvas A spectacular example of Sherrin's work in an English gold leaf swept frame. Daniel Sherrin was born in Brentford , Essex in 1868. The son of John Sherrin R.I.- the well-known flower and still life painter. There is no record of him receiving a formal training, but it is probable that as with many of his contemporaries he studied with his father. Most of Daniel Sherrin’s work is in the style of several popular artists of the time. He painted rural landscapes after the style of Benjamin W. Leader; marines after very similar to those of Thomas Somerscales and early Montague Dawson's and river scenes in watercolour after Stuart Lloyd. He did not exhibit in London, but preferred to work directly under contract for the gallery- painting the subject (and styles) that they required. He was born in Brentford, Essex before the family moved to Ramsgate when Daniel was a young boy, and his father died there in 1896. His pictures are regularly seen on the market and are highly sought after and are featured in many collections throughout the world. His paintings were sometimes used for book illustrations and engravings and a scene entitled "In the Highlands" can be seen in "British Highways and Byways from a Motor Car" by Thomas D. Murphy published in 1908. A picture of Sandringham was commissioned from him by King George V and hangs in Buckingham Palace. The Imperial War Museum in London also have material related to his work on the design of recruiting posters for the First World War. One poster was successful in recruiting over 1000 men which resulted in congratulations from Lord Kitchener. Daniel Sherrin later moved to Seasalter near Whitstable, Kent and died there on 26 January 1940. The artistic talent was carried to a third generation for his son Reginald Sherrin (q.v.) also became an artist. Daniel Sherrin sometimes used the name L. Richards on his work. Two smaller pieces by Sherrin went for $16 000.

19th Century seascape oil painting of Douglas Harbour, Isle of Man
By William Edward Webb
Located in Nr Broadway, Worcestershire
William Edward Webb British, (1862-1903) Douglas Harbour, Isle of Man Oil on canvas, signed Image size: 21.5 inches x 37.5 inches Size including frame: 33 inches x 49 inches A busy quayside painting by William Edward Webb of Douglas Harbour on the Isle of man. Fishermen in boats can be seen preparing to head ashore as other figures make their way along the quayside. William Edward Webb was born in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire in 1862 to William Benjamin Webb and Ellen Butler. His father was a printer and an artist and it is highly likely he received tuition from him. Following the death of his mother, his father remarried and moved the family to Manchester sometime after 1871. By the 1880’s, Webb had started working as an artist and later set up a studio at 30 Exchange Buildings in Manchester. He began exhibiting at the Manchester City Art Gallery from 1890, where he showed more than 60 paintings during his lifetime. He also exhibited at the Royal Academy and Walker Art Gallery Liverpool from 1892. He married Clara Foster in 1899 and the couple lived at 1 Sylvan Grove, Chorlton Upon Medlock in South Manchester with their daughter Florrie. He became friends with the artist Walter Emsley (1860-1938) who also lived in Manchester. Although he spent the rest of his life in Manchester, Webb travelled throughout the UK painting coastal and marine scenes around the main ports and harbours. He spent a great deal of time in the Isle of Mann painting numerous scenes along the coast including views of Peel and Douglas Harbour, subjects he frequently returned to. Webb painted in a highly distinctive style; loose and informal but which manages to retain the sense of perspective. He struggled with ill health and depression throughout his life which sadly led to his suicide 9 November, 1903. In 1974, a retrospective exhibition was held at The Old Customs House and Old Solent House in Lymington, which brought a new found interest in his work. His paintings are now highly sought after and are represented in many collections and Museums including the Astley Hall...

Antique 19th century English Victorian Waterfall scene landscape
By John Brandon Smith
Located in Woodbury, CT
John Brandon Smith, John Brandon Smith is an English landscape artist of some renown. He concentrated on the waterways of England, Scotland and Wales. He was particularly interested in the effects of cascading water. This led to his being given the moniker 'Waterfall Smith'. He was fascinated by the spectacle of rivers in spate. Many of his paintings concentrated on the rivers Conway, Llugwy and Lledr in North Wales but he also painted the rivers of England and Scotland. Some of his more celebrated works show The Swallow Falls and Aysgarth Falls in North Yorkshire. He used many shades of green and blue on his small, jewel-like canvases. He would occasionally introduce the figure of a fisherman to provide perspective. His themes are characteristic of the Renaissance of the European Romantic Movement. He exhibited twenty-two works at The Royal Academy between 1860 and 1874. He also exhibited at Suffolk Street. This is a very rare large example of the painters work. It is framed in an Antique English frame
