Still Life of Stoneware Jug, Blue & White Pot & Iridescent Glass Bowl (From A. Waterlow Studio Collection)

1900 - 1920
Description

A still life of good proportions depicting a stoneware jug, blue and white porcelain pot and an orange iridescent glass bowl, upon a table with patterned blue fabric and blush pink silk. Stamps for 'A. Waterlow Studio Collection' verso, as well as an historic label for Sotheby's. Circa. early 20th century.

Sir Ernest Albert Waterlow (1850-1919) was a prominent British landscape, animal and rural scene painter. He had a large studio collection of paintings which were dispersed upon his death. The numerous stamps verso to the stretcher and canvas mark this work as coming from his studio, however as Waterlow was not known to paint still life, and the canvas looks to date circa. early 20th century, it is unlikely to be by his hand; that said, there is always the possibility that it may be. Photos of his studio show blue and white porcelain pots and stoneware jugs to his fireplace so it is not beyond the realms of possibility that the work could have been a late experimental piece in still life.

The work has a very small paint loss to the upper right (please see photographs). Unframed.

A well-painted still life with remarkable verve given its subject.

This early 20th century oil painting on canvas comes from the studio collection of Sir Ernest Albert Waterlow and measures 61 cm high by 51 cm wide. Executed in an academic realism style, the unframed work depicts a still life arrangement set upon a wooden table draped with patterned blue fabric and blush pink silk. The central composition features a large, warm brown stoneware jug with a curved side handle, accompanied by a blue and white porcelain pot adorned with painted landscape motifs and a small iridescent amber glass bowl. A secondary small green and beige vessel sits partially visible in the left background against dark drapery. The canvas shows a very small paint loss to the upper right corner, along with historic stamps and a Sotheby's label verso. Suitable for hanging in an English country house interior, the painting works well placed above a sideboard, in a dining room, or within a study. The traditional academic realism style and muted palette integrate naturally with classic room settings. The unframed format allows the new owner to select a custom moulding to suit individual interior preferences. The work offers a representative example of early 20th century still life painting traditions.

A traditional still life painting focuses on the depiction of inanimate subject matter, such as pottery, glassware, textiles, or fruit, arranged deliberately to explore light, shadow, texture, and form.

Traditional oil paintings are created using colour pigments bound with drying oils, predominantly linseed oil, applied onto a stretched flax linen or cotton canvas ground.

Authentic oil paintings display natural age characteristics, such as craquelure in the varnish layer, oxidation on the reverse of the canvas, and historical stretcher bar construction techniques.

Place the painting as a central focal point above a console table or sideboard, pairing it with warm directional lighting and physical ceramics that echo the subject matter.

Keep the artwork away from direct sunlight, extreme humidity fluctuations, and direct heat sources, dusting the surface gently with a dry, soft microfibre brush without water or solvents.
