Description
LAWRENCE STEPHEN LOWRY R.A., BRITISH, 1887 0 1976, OIL ON BOARD Titled 'Lady in Waiting', signed and dated 1964, in a parcel gilt frame. (17cm x 25cm, 26cm x 35cm including frame) Condition: good throughout, no damage or restoration Provenance: in private collection since purchased from Henry Donn Gallery, 1978, accompanied by original receipt, previously, Homer Gallery, 1969, Collection of Dr H Starr of Essex. With original signed receipt from Henry Donn Gallery, 138/142 Bury New Road, Whitefield, Manchester, dated 29th August, 1977. W.J. Rogers Esq 1970. Hamet Gallery, 8 Cork Street, London, 1969, Dr. Bartlett 1964. Footnotes: Henry Donn was a close friend of the artist and was honorary consultant for the Lowry Centre when it opened in 2000. As author he is known for 'L.S. Lowry - The Illustrated Limited Editions of Lowry', Pub 1979, Scholar Press. As a noted gallery owner in addition to handling the sale of many works by Lowry during the artists lifetime, in 1974 he also published the rare lithograph 'The Park' by Lowry. ‘Lady Waiting' forms part of the body of single figure compositions the artist developed in the early 1960’s. These more personal and intimate portrayals stand in contrast to the populated scenes that established Lowry’s reputation. The work is presently under consideration for inclusion in a new revised catalogue raisonne for the artist which is being prepared by Jonathon Horwich. **Artist Resale Rights will apply to this lot**
