* WILLIAM ROBBIE (SCOTTISH 1887 - 1967), CAIRNHILL, ST FERGUS, BY PETERHEAD
Beschreibung
mixed media on paper, signed framed and under glass image size 44cm x 55cm, overall size 46cm x 58cm Note: William Robbie was one of thirteen children born to a farmworker and his wife in the Parish of Old Deer (Buchan, Aberdeenshire). He showed artistic promise from an early age, however modest earnings prevented the family from sending Robbie to art school, instead he flourished in the Buchan schools winning several prizes for his work. Clydesdale horses were of prime importance to arable farmers before the advent of the tractor and as such were worthy and prized subjects of the artist's talents. William Robbie focussed on horses and adopted folk art techniques, including using cigarette packet foil to highlight the horse brasses. His horse portraits have been sold by Christie's, Bonhams and in our auctions.
