“Ferry across the Thames” is a delightful example of John Seymour Lucas’s work.John Seymour Lucas RA, ROI & ARA (21 December 1849 – 8 May 1923) was a Victorian English historical and portrait painter. He was born into an artistic London family (he was the nephew of the painter John Lucas), and originally trained as a woodcarver, but turned his attention to portrait painting. He first started exhibiting in 1872, was elected an associate member of the Royal Academy in 1886, and a full Royal Academician in 1899. During most of his artistic career, Lucas lived in a purpose-built studio in South Hampstead, London, designed for him by his friend and fellow artist, architect Sydney Williams-Lee. He retired from painting towards the end of World War I and moved to Blythburgh, Suffolk, where he re-designed a house next to the church known as ''The Priory''. Lucas died in 1923.Size of image width 29cm height 21cmMainland Uk ShippingWe offer a professional fully insured delivery service for larger items.
