Florence Hess "Meaulte" Oil on Panel

1900 - 1920
Description

Florence Hess (1891-1974) was a painter of landscapes and still life, born in Leeds. She studied at Leeds School of Art and from 1905 with the Yorkshire painter Mark Senior, whose friend and assistant she became, accompanying him on his visits to Bruges and Holland. She painted along the coast of Yorkshire and Norfolk, her earlier work showing Senior’s influence especially. Exhibited RA, NEAC, WIAC and widely in the provinces. Florence Hess was a keen member of the Fylingdales Group. She lived in London for some time and later at Alwoodley, near Leeds.

There is an inscription on the back of the picture: "Meaulte", ("near the British Grove Town Cemetery where Henry's grave is").

This little oil on panel measuring 7"x 9" is framed giving an overall size of 10"x 13".

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

Early 20th-century impressionist landscape paintings focus on capturing light, atmosphere, and fleeting natural conditions through visible brushwork and a nuanced colour palette rather than sharp photographic detail.

Artists traditionally applied oil paint onto solid wooden panels prepared with a gesso ground layer, which provided a stable, smooth substrate that preserved detail better than flexible canvas.

Authentic oil paintings typically display age-consistent surface cracking (craquelure), natural oxidisation on the frame or panel back, period-appropriate joinery, and genuine hand-applied brushstrokes with dimensional impasto.

Style a vintage landscape painting by positioning it as a singular focal point above a fireplace or incorporating it into a mixed-media gallery wall alongside contemporary line drawings or minimalist photography.

Keep the panel away from direct sunlight and areas of fluctuating humidity to prevent warping. Surface dust should be removed gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush, avoiding water, chemical detergents, or commercial polishes.
