ALEXANDER IGNATIUS ROCHE RSA NEAC RP (SCOTTISH 1863 - 1921), THE WALK TO THE RIVER oil on canvas, signed image size 63cm x 75cm, overall size 87cm x 99cm Framed. Note: Born at Gallowgate in Glasgow on 17th August 1861, the son of a milliner, Alexander Roche was schooled at St Mungo’s Academy and then attended classes at the Glasgow School of Art while working in an architect's office. His real art training came in Paris, where he studied for several years from 1881, under Boulanger and Lefebvre at Julien’s and later under Gérome at l’Ecole des Beaux-Arts. While in Paris he met and befriended several other Scottish students including William Kennedy, (Sir) John Lavery and Thomas Millie Dow, along with Dow’s mentor, William Stott of Oldham. Together they painted at Grez-Sur-Loing, just south of Fontainebleau, all influenced by Bastien-Lepage (1848-84) and the plein-airistes. In 1885 Roche returned to Glasgow where he painted a number of romantic idylls of girls in gardens, interiors or in landscape, such as The Dominie’s (schoolmaster) Favourites exhibited at the Glasgow Institute in 1885, No. 591, which was priced at the great sum of £250 and The Shepherdess (exhibited to acclaim at the RA 1890). He moved to a cottage on the banks of the Luggie in Dunbartonshire and there some of his best landscapes were painted. Most of 1888 was spent in Capri, where he was associated with a cosmopolitan group of artists including Fabio Fabbi and Harold Speed. Two further trips to Italy followed, to Florence and Venice, in the early 1890s when he painted peasants in the Sabine Hills. In Florence, he met and married an Italian girl, but the marriage was not to last. In 1896 Roche moved to Edinburgh and began to paint portraits and figure studies. His sense of colour and confident brushwork were well suited to portraiture and in his later years this became his main output and source of income. He spent some time in the USA, fulfilling portrait commissions and seeking others. Among his lucrative commissions was a group portrait for Andrew Carnegie, then the world’s richest man, of his wife Louise (nee Whitfield) and their daughter, Margaret. He won a gold medal at Munich 1891, an Hon. Mention at the Paris Salon 1892 and a gold medal at Dresden 1897. Elected ARSA 1894 and RSA 1900, he exhibited at the RSA from 1887 - 1976 and at the RA from 1890 - 1919. Roche was considered a member of the Glasgow School, but after the late 1880s he drifted to the fringes of the movement. In 1906, he remarried, to Jean, daughter of the animal painter Robert Alexander and sister of Edwin, the flower and animal painter. All four shared a friendship with Joseph Crawhall, together with a love of Tangier. They lived from 1907 until the outbreak of the Great War at 8 Royal Terrace in Edinburgh, a very prestigious Edinburgh address reflecting his considerable commercial success. Around this time he was struck with a cerebral haemorrhage which paralysed his right hand. He taught himself to paint with his left and was later to produce some exceptional landscapes. The Roches later bought a house, Hailes Cottage in the village of Slateford, by the Water of Leith, to the southwest of Edinburgh, where he died, on 10th March 1921, aged 59. UK public collections hold forty examples of his work including at Glasgow Museums & Galleries, The National Galleries of Scotland, The Fleming Collection, The Kelvingrove, The Hunterian, Edinburgh, Kirkcaldy, Stirling The Royal Scottish Academy and The Walker Art Gallery.
Gherman Alexeyvich Komlev (Russian, 1933 - 2000) "Hardships of Emigration" Signed lower right. Original Oil on Canvas laid on Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting was originally published on the Fleetwood First Day Cover for the U.S. 10c Trans-Mississippi stamp issued June 18, 1998. Traveling 15 miles a day with pack animals, 2-wheel carts or wagons, emigrant families sometimes took over four months to reach the Far West. Top-heavy covered wagons faced many risks: blowing over in strong prairie winds, being knocked over by mountain rocks, getting mired in river mud or sinking to the hubs in desert sand. On the positive side, these "prairie schooners" provided shelter from drenching rainstorms and the scorching sun as they navigated the seemingly endless seas of prairie grass. Broken wagons, putrefying mule, oxen and horse carcasses, and shallow, hastily-dug human graves littered the way west -- testament to the hardships endured by the families that preceded them. Some estimates hold that 1 of every 17 emigrants who started the journey west ended up buried alongside the trail. A mother's diary of her trip paints a vivid portrait of the daily challenges faced by emigrants. "We are creeping along slowly, one wagon after another, out of one mud hole and into another all day ... Them that eat the most breakfast eat the most sand ... It has been raining all day long. The men and boys are all soaking wet and look sad and comfortless. The little ones and myself are shut up in the wagons from the rain ... Lost one of our oxen; he dropped dead in the yoke. I could hardly help shedding tears ... I was sick all night and not able to get out of the wagon in the morning ... Yesterday my eighth child was born ... Take us all together we are a poor looking set, and all this for Oregon." Image Size: 10 x 20.5 in. Overall Size: 12.75 x 22.75 in. Unframed. (B16013)
