H. Hadfield Cubley "Morning, Whitby" Oil Painting

1900 - 1920
Description

Henry Hadfield Cubley (1858-1934) was born in Newark, Nottinghamshire in. He was the nephew of William Cubley, an influential figure in Henry’s life, as not only was William a teacher and a previous Mayor of Newark, but also an accomplished landscape painter. Henry became a successful artist in his own right, moving to Matlock Bath, Derbyshire in 1888, and going on to exhibit at the Birmingham Salon and the Royal Academy on numerous occasions. Henry’s vibrant country scenes are instantly recognizable for their atmospheric quality, as well as the artist’s sensitively rendered depictions of highland cattle.

Henry was often drawn to the rugged beauty of Wales and Scotland’s mountainous regions, which provided inspiration for some of his most sought after works. The artist’s last exhibition at the Royal Academy was in 1902, after which he continued to paint and immerse himself in the landscapes he loved up until his death in 1934.

The present painting "Morning, Whitby" is a good atmospheric oil painting of Whitby on the Yorkshire coast. It is signed lower left and inscribed with the title on the reverse. It measures 12"x 18" and is framed giving an overall size of 17"x 23".

We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer.

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
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.

Emerging in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, British Impressionism captured maritime and coastal scenes using loose brushwork, atmospheric light, and muted colour palettes to convey weather conditions.

Artists typically used oil-based pigments mixed with linseed oil, applied onto stretched linen or cotton canvas, or solid wooden panels, often finished with a natural resin varnish.

Key indicators include age-appropriate craquelure across the paint surface, natural yellowing of varnish, artist signatures, period-appropriate canvas stretchers, and signs of hand-carved or moulded framing.

Hang the painting as a focal point above a mantelpiece or sideboard, pairing it with neutral wall tones, natural timber, and clean-lined furniture to allow the atmospheric colours to stand out.

Display the painting away from direct sunlight, excessive humidity, and direct heat sources, cleaning gently with a soft dry brush rather than liquid solvents.
