John Falconar Slater was a Newcastle born artist who painted a wide range of subjects in oils and watercolours exhibiting prolifically in the North East of England. Initially Slater worked as a bookkeeper for his father's corn mill and then, having emigrated at 20, ran a store in the diamond fields of South Africa. Returning to the Northumberland he turned to art as a career. J.F. Slater could well be one of the best Northern Impressionist artists and he was expert at depicting the many moods of the North Sea. It is reported that he was often seen clad in oil-skins, his easel tied to rocks and weighed down by stones, so he could paint in all weathers. Indeed, the blue plaque that honours him and commemorates his time lived in Cullercoats (St. Oswins Avenue) cites that he was, “known as the 'weatherproof artist' for his practice of painting outdoors in all conditions.” John Falconar Slater was a member of the Bewick Club, the President of the North East Art Club, based in Whitley Bay, and a leading member of the Cullercoats Colony. Slater exhibited widely on Tyneside, Walker Gallery, Liverpool, (5) and Manchester City Art Gallery (1) and exhibited 22 works at the Royal Academy. Today his works are held, among others, by the: Laing Art Gallery; Shipley Art Gallery; Government Art collection; National Maritime Museum; South Shields, Sunderland, Lancaster, Museums.

This piece is an oil painting on board titled The Farmstead, dating from circa 1900 in the British Impressionism style by John Falconar Slater. The artwork depicts a rural cottage scene with impasto brushwork, warm ochre and gold tones, and a blue sky, housed within an ornate swept gilt frame featuring acanthus scroll moulding. The original gilt wood and gesso frame displays corner foliate ornamentation and reeded outer borders. The artwork measures 94 cm high, 79 cm wide, and 6 cm deep. Positioned in an English Country House interior, this piece works well displayed above the mantel in a living room, dining room, or hallway. The painting and frame have been cleaned and remain in very good, ready-to-hang condition for modern placement.

FAQs

British Impressionist landscape paintings from the late 19th and early 20th centuries emphasize natural light, expressive impasto brushwork, and atmospheric depictions of countryside scenes, often capturing rural life and changing seasons.

Artwork from this period typically features oil pigments mixed with drying oils applied to stretched linen canvas, mounted inside moulded wooden frames finished with plaster, gesso, and gold leaf gilding.

Authenticity is assessed by examining artist signatures, surface craquelure patterns, stretcher construction, brushwork technique, and natural oxidisation or aging on the reverse of the canvas and frame.

A gilt-framed landscape functions as a focal point when hung above a mantelpiece or sideboard, providing textural contrast against contemporary neutral walls or complementing traditional timber paneling.

Oil paintings should be kept away from direct sunlight, high humidity, and heat sources. The frame can be gently dusted with a soft, dry brush, while canvas cleaning should be performed exclusively by a professional art conservator.
