* HERBERT WHONE (BRITISH 1925 - 2011), THE GREEN DOOR oil on canvas, signed and dated '67 86cm x 64cm (33 7/8 x 25 3/16 inches) Framed Note: Whone was born in Bingley, West Yorkshire, where his parents were both employed in the cloth mills. He was encouraged by his mother to ''improve'' himself culturally, and from an early age took photographs and practised the violin. After education at the Royal Manchester College of Music (now the Royal Northern College of Music) and Manchester University, he secured positions in the Royal Opera House Orchestra and the BBC Symphony Orchestra, before moving to Glasgow in 1955, where he took up the position of deputy leader of the Scottish National Orchestra. He was inspired by Glasgow's changing fortunes and painted a series of notable canvases featuring the beauty of a city in transition. His painting of trams and shipbuilding, to pick two of his fondest subjects, were presented with warmth and beauty, almost impressionistic in their depiction of glowing sunsets and use of rich colour. Herbert Whone (often incorrectly catalogued as Herbert Bannister Whone) continued to paint long after his departure from Glasgow in 1964 and the Pennine villages became his favoured subjects. Glasgow Museums and The National Galleries of Scotland hold examples of his work.
