Myles Birket Foster, R.W.S (1825-1899) 'Bellagio, Lake Como, Italy', signed with the artist's monogram, also inscribed verso, watercolour, a vignette, 10.5cm x 14cm *Provenance with Walker Galleries Ltd, 6, Montpellier Gardens, Harrogate, HG1 2TF, 29th March, 2000. Possibly exhibited at the Society of Painters in watercolours in 1867 The artist was born in North Shields & moved to London when he was five, he was apprenticed to one of the leading wood engravers of the day, Ebenezer Landells who in turn had been a pupil of Thomas Bewick. He first cut blocks then produced drawings for the magazines, "Punch","The Illustrated London News," and many other publications. He illustrated Longfellows, "Evangeline", & Roger's "Italy". In 1846 he set up on his own and illustrated books, he turned to painting chiefly Water Colours in 1859, and in total contributed some four hundred examples at The Water Colour Society, also exhibiting at The Royal Academy between 1859-1881. He travelled extensively around the Continent & made many visits to Italy, particularly Venice, largely on commission from Charles Seeley to produce 50 Venetian drawings for a total of £5,000. In 1863 he built a house in Witley near Godalming, and it is for his Surrey views that he his best known today, meticulously worked up with astounding technical skill, and a fine sense of composition, as well as a command of colour. Manuscripts relating to the artists life are held at The Victoria & Albert Museum.

Eugéne Galien-Laloue (1854-1941) 'Place de la Republique' Signed, also inscribed on a plaque attached to the frame, Gouache heightened with white on tinted paper, 18.5cm x 29cm Provenance: Eugéne Galien-Laloue was born in Paris in 1854. He was mainly known for his impressionist portrayal of Parisian street scenes. In 1877 he was a student of Charles Laloue, a long-time member of the Artistes Français. During the early part of his career he used a number of pseudonyms to overcome an exclusive contract with a major gallery. These included L. Dupuy, J. Lievin and E. Galiany, all of which are listed in the catalogue raisonne. Galien-Laloue worked mainly in gouache with a light, expressive style. He depicted the Parisian street scenes of the early 1900's with an accuracy that reflected that iconic era. Indeed he was one of the first painters to historically represent these bustling streets and as such has been a great influence to a host of later artists, such as Edouard Cortès and Antoine Blanchard.

Albert Goodwin R.W.S (1845-1932) 'Gezsaw, Lake Lucerne', signed and inscribed, watercolour and gouache with scratching out, unframed, 20cm x 23.5cm *The size incorporates the artist's original washline edge, image size 18cm x 22cm Provenance: By Direct Descent from the Artist to the Present Vendor. The Painter was an ardent admirer of Joseph Mallord William Turner, his first exhibit was at the Royal Academy in 1860, when he was aged just,15, during the next decade he was a pupil of the Pre-Raphaelite Painters Arthur Hughes and Ford Maddox Brown who introduced him to the Art Critic and Painter John Ruskin who took him on a trip to Italy, some of the drawings we are selling may relate to that tour in 1872. He travelled widely in Europe, India, Egypt, and the South Sea Islands. He studied the effects of light and atmosphere very carefully and Hardie wrote, 'he can be counted as one of those who have successfully dealt with twilight and sunset'. He experimented with methods of sponging and stippling and was one of the first to use a pen-line in combination with watercolour wash. Reynolds wrote 'he often reached a higher plane of poetry, with even a hint of mystery in his pictures'.
