§ Henry Silk (British, 1883-1947) Lakeland Landscape, 1920s signed lower right "H Silk" watercolour 17 x 22cm (7 x 9in) Provenance: By descent within the family of the artist Other Notes: Henry Silk’s early life is obscure. He was an East Ender, born on Christmas Day, 1883, who worked as a basket maker for an uncle, Abraham Silk, at his workshop and shop in the Bow Rd. Fruit baskets were in great demand then and men making baskets became features of Silk’s pictures. “He used to work for three weeks at basket-making and spend the fourth in the pub,” Group member, Walter Steggles, remembered, describing Silk’s erratic work and drinking habits. Yet Steggles also spoke of Silk with affection, admitting “He was a kind-hearted man who always looked older than his years.” Silk was the uncle of Elwin Hawthorne, one of the leading members of the East London Group, and lived for a time with that family at 11, Rounton Rd in Bow. Elwin’s widow Lilian – who, as Lilian Leahy, also showed with the group – remembered Silk as “generous to others but mean to himself. He would use an old canvas if someone gave it to him rather than buy a new one.” This make-do-and-mend ethos was common among the often-hard-up Group members when it came to framing, too. Cooper directed them to E. R. Skillen & Co, in Lamb’s Conduit St, where Walter Steggles used to buy old frames that could be cut to size. A little fading, one old tape mark to the glass, otherwise fine
