* DOROTHY JOHNSTONE ARSA (SCOTTISH 1892 - 1980), BOUQUET IN AN ITALIAN JAR oil on canvas, signed and dated 1978, titled verso image size 62cm x 46cm, overall size 77cm x 62cm Framed and under glass. Label verso: Royal Scottish Academy Exhibition 1978. Note: Dorothy Johnstone was a pioneer of women’s art in the early 20th century; she was the star student at Edinburgh College of Art, graduating in 1912. Not long after the new College was created out of the old Trustees Academy. Johnstone was clearly aware of contemporary developments in Paris, and certainly, the College wasn't cut off from artistic European trends. Her older contemporaries in Edinburgh included the Scottish Colourists Peploe and Cadell. Although their example might have influenced her work, in reality, it was a woman artist who seemed to liberate both her style and palette, Laura Knight exhibited eleven pictures at the Royal Scottish Academy in 1916. Significantly too she had already shown a picture there in 1911 when Johnstone was still a student. It was called On the Rocks, a title that could fit several of Knight's marvellous paintings from that time of girls, rocks and the sea on the Cornish coast. The artist's seaside paintings were particularly vivid. For instance, A Dark Pool, housed in the Laing Art Gallery, depicts a girl in a bright orange dress standing beneath a vast blue sky and sea. When it came to colour, Knight acknowledged the impact of the Scottish artist Charles Mackie (1862–1920). Through his friendship with Paul Sérusier, the artist had close links to the French painters working alongside Gauguin at the turn of the century. Johnstone has works in many major public collections and her work is rare to the market.
