Owen Bowen "The Harbour, Isle of Man" 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 Harbour, Isle of Man" is a lovely little oil painting measuring 6" x 8". It is signed lower right, inscribed with the title  "1.O.M." and dated 1901 dating this picture from his best period.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. 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. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
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.

British Impressionist marine painting emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, characterised by plein air techniques, fluid brushwork, and a focus on natural light and atmospheric conditions along working coastlines and harbours.

Artists typically painted with oil pigments bound in linseed oil, applied onto stretched linen canvas, wood panels, or artist boards using bristle brushes and palette knives.

Authenticity is indicated by natural craquelure across the paint surface, historic patina on the reverse of the canvas or board, period-appropriate framing, and artist signatures or gallery labels.

Position the painting as a focal point above a sideboard or mantelpiece, pairing it with neutral wall tones and muted wood furniture to complement its subtle maritime palette.

Keep the artwork away from direct sunlight, excess moisture, and fluctuating temperatures. Surface dust should be gently removed with a soft, dry camel-hair brush, avoiding water or chemical cleaners.
