λWalter Steggles (British 1908-1997) Church Street, Bathford Oil on board Signed lower left, titled verso 26 x 30.5cm (10 x 12 in.) Provenance: The family of the artist Walter Steggles was born in Highbury in London in 1908. His family had no immediate artistic connections and yet Walter and his younger brother Harold both became members of what was later known as the East London Group. Between the wars, this Bow-based group of artists were widely exhibited and appreciated, most notably with the Lefevre Gallery, who ran a series of shows between 1929 and 36. Steggles’s work was shown alongside such eminent British artists as Duncan Grant, Mark Gertler, Vanessa Bell, Ivon Hitchens, Christopher Wood and Stanley Spencer as well as international icons such as Cezanne, Degas, Vuillard and Renoir. Wally, as he was known, continued to paint until his death in 1997, the East London Group and all but forgotten addendum to the inter-war years. However, his catalogue of works reveals an artist and a movement that merits closer attention. Walter’s landscape works from this early period are hauntingly emotive and his cityscapes are imbued with the stylistic simplicity so defining of this period of English art history. λ Indicates that this lot may be subject to Droit de Suite royalty charges.
