Herbert Royle "Port Dinorwic" "Y Felinheli" Oil Painting

1900 - 1920
Description

Herbert Royle (1870-1958) was a British landscape painter, born in Patricroft, Lancashire. He trained at the Harris Institute in Preston and Southport school of art under John William Buxton Knight. He exhibited extensively at the Walker gallery, Liverpool, Manchester city art gallery, Royal Academy and at other Galleries and Exhibitions throughout the Country. From 1924 onwards he lived at the Manor House in the hamlet of Nesfield, near Ilkley, where he also had a studio on the hillside above the house. Some of his finest work was painted in this area around his home in Wharfedale.

The present painting "Port Dinorwic, North Wales", "Y Felinheli", is a very fine and unusual example of his work. An oil painting on canvas measuring 16"x 20", it is signed lower left and has the original inscription with the title "Port Dinorwic, North Wales" on the back. It is framed in a quality gilt frame giving an overall size of 24" x 27".

Y Felinheli, formerly known in English as Port Dinorwic,  is a village and community beside the Menai Strait between Bangor and Caenarfon in Gwynedd, North West Wales.

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.

British Impressionist marine art focuses on capturing fleeting effects of natural light, water movement, and atmospheric weather conditions using visible, expressive brushstrokes and a muted, natural palette.

Artists during this period typically applied ground mineral and organic oil pigments bound in linseed oil onto stretched linen canvas, cotton duck, or wooden artist boards.

Authenticity is verified through artist signatures, evidence of contemporary stretchers or panels, layered impasto paint application, and natural surface age craquelure.

A maritime oil painting functions as a central focal point when positioned above a mantlepiece, console table, or sideboard, complementing neutral wall tones and timber furniture.

Preserve oil paintings by hanging them away from direct sunlight, maintaining stable humidity levels, avoiding heat sources, and engaging a professional conservator for periodic cleaning.
