Owen Bowen "Wharfedale Pastures" Yorkshire Oil Painting

1900 - 1920
Description

Owen Bowen was born in Leeds in 1873. He was educated from an early age during evenings at Leeds School of Art before working as a pottery designer and lithography apprentice. In the early 20th century, Bowen travelled to Holland, where he painted maritime landscapes and windmill scenes. He went on to form what was later known as the Owen Bowen School of Art. Before his death at the age of 94 in 1967, Bowen exhibited his work regularly throughout England, showing at the Walker Gallery, the Royal Cambrian Academy and the R.A. His work is held in many private and public collections and his paintings are in great demand to this day.

FAQs

British Impressionist pastoral painting emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, focusing on rural landscapes, light effects, and agricultural life executed with painterly, textured brushwork.

Artists typically used oil pigments suspended in linseed oil applied to stretched linen canvas or wooden artist boards, often employing impasto techniques applied with bristle brushes or palette knives.

Authenticity is indicated by period-correct canvas weave, age-appropriate surface craquelure, natural paint oxidisation, artist signatures, and provenance labels on the reverse.

Position the artwork as a focal point above a mantelpiece or sideboard, framing it in a understated gilded or wooden frame to contrast with neutral wall tones.

Display the painting away from direct sunlight, extreme humidity, and direct heat sources, dusting the surface gently with a soft dry brush and avoiding liquid cleaners.
