Good evening Kate & thank you, somewhat belatedly on my part, I'm afraid. Yes, this is a lovely painting. You might be interested to see this sketch for "Montmartre" by Walter Steggles from 1971 which surfaced from his archives recently. #WalterSteggles #Montmartre #Paris #ELG https://t.co/8JbhzaOge9
Good evening Nicola @nicolab03 & thank you. You're absolutely right,there are three Brynhild Parker paintings in the sale @PenzanceAuction on Thursday & Friday this week as lots 395, 396 & 397 here:-https://t.co/ZlTE5zZwKP I'm afraid I "dropped off" as a friend of mine would say!
Good afternoon @RichardKerley & thank you. Walter Steggles exhibited at least four paintings with the same title of "Canvey Island" during his time with the Group. Here's a black & white photo of one of them by him which I think may date from 1932.
On a rather dull & wet morning I thought I'd start today with one that might hopeful brighten one's day. This is "Orleston Road, N7" by Elwin Hawthorne from 1934 which is in the collection @AbdnArtMuseums #ElwinHawthorne #Islington #Highbury #ELG
Good evening Gaynor @MadocLeonard & thank you. Here's another one which is only known from a photo of a photo from Walter Steggles' archives: sadly, it is untitled but I suspect that it depicts somewhere in Suffolk or Norfolk. #WalterSteggles #ELG
I thought I'd start today with one that yet another that I haven't shown for a very long time indeed! This is "Boats on the River Yare" by Walter Steggles which is undated. Sadly, it is only known from this photo of a photo, if that makes sense! #WalterSteggles #Norfolk #ELG
Good morning John @JohnTizard & thank you. Here's one from further West along the Dorset coast: this is "Lyme Regis" by John Cooper from 1935 with some much needed sunshine to brighten the day! #Dorset #JohnCooper #ELG
Good morning @Middletonfox & thank you: that is most kind. Here's another one which has rarely seen the light of day in recent times: this is "Roundway Hill" by Walter Steggles from his post-war work. #Wiltshire #RoundwayHill #ELG
Good afternoon @pughy13 & thank you: I hope you'll continue to enjoy seeing the Group's work. As a recipient of the Binney Award, I hope you'll like this one: "In Custody" by Brynhild Parker which is in the collection @LeamSpaArtGall #ELG
Good morning @JohnTizard & thank you. Yes, it is a lovely piece. Here's another one by John Cooper which I haven't shown for a long time: this is "Three Prima Donnas" which is in the Model Gallery @PallantGallery It dates from 1934 & measures just 7ins x 5ins! #ELG
