Cecil R. Doyly-john (British 1906-1993) Cannes Oil Painting.

1940 - 1960
Description

Large Cecil R. Doyly-John (British 1906-1993) - 'Mougins near Cannes, S of France', oil on canvas, signed lower right, inscribed verso, 35cm x 71.5cm, within a linen-lined wood frame. It would appear this artist's works are still rising. I wrote an article on Doyly John 5 years ago when his paintings were making £300-£500 at many auctions. I predicted a good future for collectors of his works. It would appear I was correct. Now one of the most collected artists of the 20th century. I still predict further rises in price in the next years £2,000-4000. Larger paintings being at the higher end of our expectations. With auction commissions added, we are now already over the £2,000 mark for many auctioned paintings. I know of no safer money at present than Doyly John's oil paintings.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

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

During the mid-twentieth century, artists frequently travelled to the South of France and the Mediterranean to capture the distinct light, vibrant coastal colours, and historic village architecture. Paintings from this era often feature expressive palette knife techniques, thick impasto, and sunlit architectural vistas.

Artists create impasto oil paintings by applying heavy, undiluted oil paint to stretched canvas or board using palette knives or stiff brushes. This technique leaves visible textures and raised ridges, adding three-dimensional quality and dynamic light reflections to the artwork surface.

Authentic pieces generally display genuine artist signatures, age-appropriate surface craquelure or natural oxidisation, and period stretchers or framing materials. Examining the reverse of the canvas for historical gallery labels, stamps, or canvas maker marks also helps confirm authenticity.

Position the painting as a focal point above low-profile furniture, such as a sideboard, credenza, or fireplace mantel. Complement the rich warm tones of the artwork with neutral wall finishes and minimalist picture lighting to highlight the impasto texture without overwhelming the space.

Keep oil paintings away from direct sunlight, extreme humidity, and direct heat sources to prevent cracking or fading. Dust the surface lightly with a dry, soft-bristled brush, avoiding water or chemical cleaners, and consult a professional conservator for deep cleaning or restoration.
