A stunning Oil on Board by Richard Thornton circa 1960s. Titled Tourettes Sur Loup-Provence A painter and architect, Richard Thornton was born in Bebington, Cheshire and attended the Birmingham School of Art from 1939 to 1941.Following active war service, he furthered his studies at the School of Architecture, Birmingham, from 1946 to 50. Elected an Associate of theSociety in 1978 full membership followed three years later. He has been in architectural practice all his working life and was elected a Fellow of the Royal Institute of British Architects in 1950. He has exhibited his paintings extensively throughout the West Midlands, his main mediums being watercolour and gouache. His pictures are mainlylandscapes incorporating buildings, no doubt owing some allegiance tohis architectural background. Prior to the mid-1960s most of his work depicted the Black Country and Birmingham, particularly showing bombdamaged buildings and industrial deterioration. Latterly however, the majority of his work has shown views of hill towns and villages in Tuscany and Provence of which this is one. Purchased from the artist while Thornton was still exhibiting in Birmingham, it has been in the same family since. The board not including frame measures 61x46cm. Goodclean condition, in original frame.
