Thomas Bush Hardy (1842-1897) - Shipping at Plymouth
I am offering for auction a superb late 19th century watercolour of shipping at Plymouth, by sought after and renowned listed artist Thomas Bush Hardy, 1842-1997. Signed and inscribed bottom left. Sorry about reflections on the glass.
The painting measures 57 x 21.5 cm. The frame measures 56.5 x 38.5 cm.
Condition of the painting is good. Please view all photos for accurate condition. Ready to hang.
I have taken possession of a collection of several very fine watercolours from a private diseased estate which I am offering in Catawiki. Check out my other auctions.
Hardy was born in Sheffield, Yorkshire on 3 May 1842. As a young man he travelled in the Netherlands and Italy.
In 1884 Hardy was elected a Member of the Royal Society of British Artists. He exhibited with the Society and also at the Royal Academy. His paintings feature coastal scenes in England and the Netherlands, the French Channel ports and the Venetian Lagoon.
He died on 15 December 1897 in Maida Vale, London and was buried on the eastern side of Highgate Cemetery. His grave has no headstone or marker.
Hardy had nine children. His son Dudley Hardy was a painter, illustrator and poster designer. His daughter Dorothy received an MBE after working as a nurse in the First World War.
Please note. I am on vacation until 2nd May 2024 so all paintings will be posted as soon as I return.
Please note. Due to the fragile nature of old frames and glass, our shippers do not provide insurance for any damage caused during transit. We go to great lengths to ensure each painting is packed and protected to a very high standard but sadly cannot compensate or refund for any damage occurring to frames or glass during transit. Therefore the frame and any glass is a gift to you with zero value and you are bidding on the artwork only.
Due to Brexit, there are delays at EU customs borders though the situation is improving. Please do not blame me for delays or any customs duty payable. I really appreciate your understanding and patience. Steve.
