§ Carel Weight CH, CBE, RA (British 1908-1997) Portrait of Mervyn Levysigned 'Carel Weight' (upper left)oil on board60 x 44.5cm Provenance:Mervyn Levy, by whom gifted to Joseph FittonThe collection of Joseph Fitton (1925-2009) The present lot depicts the Welsh artist, teacher, and critic, Mervyn Levy, who was perhaps best-known for his association with Dylan Thomas and for his monographs on his friend, L.S. Lowry. After discovering his clear aptitude for teaching art during the 1950s, Mervyn Levy became the presenter of the pioneering BBC television show, Painting for Housewives. This was followed by regular appearances on BBC radio and television programmes, including Kaleidoscope. After having become a household name in radio and television, Levy turned his attentions to art writing - publishing 25 books over the intervening 30-year period. Describing the present lot, Levy’s son, the documentary film maker, Ceri Levy, writes: “I remember this picture well as for some time Dad had been asking Carel Weight to paint a portrait of him and finally the artist acquiesced. Even in a seemingly straightforward portrait, Carel creates his usual mix of oddness and drama within the work. Dad looks calm, gathering his thoughts, and there is a sense of the moment before the painting starts. Dad prepares to put his best face forward, but the artist has cunningly side-stepped the build-up before the show and snuck backstage. Dad was uncomfortable with the painting when Carel had finished it. Perhaps he had not expected this kind of raw capture, but there was another thing. Dad had a wart on the end of his nose, which Carel had faithfully painted, and Dad hated this. He asked Carel to remove it, which he said he couldn’t do as it was part of Mervyn. So, Dad came up with a plan and had the wart surgically removed. He was nothing if not tenacious and afterwards he asked Carel to update the picture and remove the wart from his painting and Carel agreed and did indeed paint over it. I always admired this painting as it was painted by a true friend of Dad’s who encapsulated his essence. A great portrait doesn’t lie and the truth here is writ large for anyone who knew my father. The years are etched upon his face, the skin sags, the life has been full and I know that in this moment his mind is incessantly whirring and ticking. And it’s that life in this quiet pause that comes shining through and allows Dad to breathe a new life in a painted world. We look at this painting in front of us and we can stop talking about my Dad in the past tense as he becomes alive in the present day once more.” The artist has scratched and scraped at the paint layer in places, this is intrinsic to the artwork and not the result of any damage. The surface has an overall glossy appearance, with some matte passages. There are a few specks of paint across the surface, for example, some white specks in the top left quadrant, though these, again, appear to have been done by the artist rather than at a later date.
