Nude Oil Painting - By James Clark (British, 1858-1943).

1900 - 1920
Description

Oil on board.

Signed 'Clark' (lower right). Framed behind glass.

Total width 46cm x 41cm high.

Provenance: Gifted directly from the artist to Fred Roe, author of the classic volume ‘The Nude from Cranach to Etty and Beyond’ Published by F. Lewis, London, 1944. (see old labels pasted to verso of picture).

Illustrated: in ‘The Nude from Cranach to Etty and Beyond’ plate 47.

The following is an extract: It is not because dear ‘Jimmy’ Clark was and old and valued friend that I draw him from his modest niche in the pantheon of artists. Nor is he remembered here simply because he happened to be a good and thoughtful painter of long experience and high resource. It is because his occasional nudes include some of masterly ability, handled with fine sense of structure and the texture of flesh.

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.

During this era, academic nude paintings focused on classical proportions, natural light, and expressive brushwork, reflecting traditional fine art training from British institutions.

Fine art oil paintings from this period were typically executed using natural earth pigments mixed with linseed oil, applied onto stretched linen canvas or hardwood panels.

Authentic oil paintings usually exhibit age-appropriate craquelure across the paint surface, historic wood frame joinery, original stretcher bars, and hand-applied signatures or artist inscriptions.

Hang figurative paintings as a focal point against rich neutral backdrop tones, or group them within a curated gallery wall alongside modern photography for visual contrast.

Preserve oil paintings by dusting gently with a soft dry brush, avoiding liquid cleaners, and hanging them away from direct sunlight, extreme humidity, and direct heat sources.
