Owen Bowen "One Summer's Day" Oil on Canvas

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.

"One Summer's Day" is a fine example. Measuring 28"x 36" it is signed lower left and is framed in the quality original frame giving an overall size of 36"x 44". This lovely example dating from the artist's best period, around 1910, is in good original unrestored condition.

On the back is a nice old label with the original title "One Summer's Day".

Owen Bowen "One Summer's Day" is an oil painting on canvas dating from 1910, created in the British Impressionism style. The artwork depicts a pastoral scene with sheep grazing in a green field beneath a cloudy sky, displaying impressionist brushwork. The painting is set within a carved gilt frame featuring a heavily moulded golden leaf pattern. The composition includes a prominent large tree in the foreground, rolling hills in the background, and the artist's signature visible in the lower left corner. The frame displays a warm golden tone with aged patina and high-relief carved mouldings along the outer edge. The overall size is 92 cm high, 112 cm wide, and 7 cm deep, backed with an old original title label. Placed above a mantel in an English country house interior, this piece brings a tranquil landscape atmosphere to a living room, study, or hallway. The rich green and golden hues coordinate with traditional timber furniture and neutral wall finishes. The compact depth allows secure wall mounting in standard residential spaces, adding historic character and artistic depth to the room layout.

FAQs

British impressionist landscape painting from this period focuses on capturing natural light, atmospheric conditions, and pastoral countryside scenes using fluid brushwork and a muted natural palette.

Traditional oil paintings were created using ground pigments bound with drying oils such as linseed, applied onto stretched flax linen or cotton canvas and mounted in carved timber or gilt gesso frames.

Authentic period paintings are identified by signatures, age-consistent craquelure across the paint layer, historic canvas maker stamps or labels on the reverse, and period-correct frame construction.

A framed landscape painting can be positioned above a mantelpiece, sideboard, or console table to establish a central visual focal point that bridges classic artwork with contemporary furnishings.

Maintain the painting by keeping it away from direct sunlight, high humidity, and radiators, dusting the frame gently with a soft dry brush while avoiding commercial liquid cleansers.
