Owen Bowen "Edinburgh" 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.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

British Impressionist landscape paintings from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries typically feature painterly impasto technique, muted earthy palettes, and atmospheric lighting that captures changing weather across rural and regional topographies.

These artworks generally consist of oil-based pigments applied to stretched linen canvas or wooden panels, presented within moulded timber frames decorated with gesso detailing and finished with gold leaf or bronze powders.

Authentic period works often exhibit natural craquelure on the paint surface, historic gallery labels or artist brass plaques on the lower frame edge, period-appropriate stretcher keys, and oxidation on the canvas reverse.

Classic gilt-framed oil paintings function well as focal points above fire surrounds, sideboards, or integrated into mixed gallery walls alongside contrasting modern photography and abstract art.

Keep the canvas away from direct heat sources and high humidity. Clean the gilded frame gently with a soft dry brush rather than liquid cleaners, and consult a professional conservator for surface varnish restoration.
