DAVID RAYSON (B. 1966) OUTSIDE 2001 Acrylic on panel 100cm x 115cm (39.5in x 45.5in) Exhibited: Cambridge Kettle's Yard 'Something Else is Here' 2003 Note: Outside perfectly typifies David Rayson's obsession with suburbia and documenting the underlying stories and human content that abound within it. The artist combines phenomenal technical ability with a curiosity of eye to create an image that both captivates the viewer and creates a narrative dialogue. The viewer is asked to consider what is happening in the scene why the cans of beer the cigarettes and the change have been left on the wall. Has the homeowner just returned from purchasing them at the shops; is it his car we see reflected in the window? It's the ordinary stories lurking behind the façade of suburbia that fascinate the artist. David Rayson has forged an international reputation as one of the UK's leading painters he is also Senior Painting Tutor at the Royal College of Art. His work can be found in the collections of Tate Modern the Fogg Art Museum Massachusetts the Royal College of Art the Rubell Family and other public and private collections in the UK and America.

He spent vast sums of money on the estate, which totalled 9000 acres, in the form of sea defences, a manor house, and an alpine garden. Quilter shared his father's interest in art collecting, although he cultivated his own unique, albeit catholic, taste. His collection included works by modern English artists, such as the Pre-Raphaelite painters D. G. Rossetti, Millais, and Holman Hunt; Royal Academicians including Sir Frederic Leighton, Sir Edwin Landseer, and Sir Hubert von Herkomer; nineteenth-century French masters, for example Corot, Daubigny, and Millet; and old masters such as Frans Hals and Velázquez. His collection was well respected. The art critic F. G. Stephens praised Quilter's collection in a series of articles written for Cassell's Magazine of Art in 1896-7. Quilter's assemblage of paintings at his London house, 28 South Street, Park Lane, was sold at Christies on 9 July 1909, realizing £87,780. (1)

It is also so far surprisingly the last. " (Wagner Pedigree and progress p. 37) Provenance: With the armorial book-plate of John Bolton

Maurice de Vlaminck 1876-1958 RUE DE VILLAGE signed oil on canvas 60 by 73cm.; 23.625 by 28.75in. Rue de Village is a powerful example of Vlaminck's deep interest in the relationship between nature and man and the darker style which characterized his works before and after Fauvism. Vlaminck had originally used Fauvism as a means of portraying nature acknowledging that ÔI had no other ambition than to discover with the help of new means those deep inner ties that linked me to the very soil' (quoted by John Rewald ÔAn Introduction to the Fauve Movement' in Les Fauves The Museum of Modern Art NY 1952 pp. 8-9). After growing disillusioned with the style in 1908 Vlaminck reverted to a darker palette in order to depict landscapes giving rise to the dramatically beautiful play of light and shadow seen here in Rue de Village. The countryside had always had a greater pull for the artist than the city and the present work illustrates the respect Vlaminck had for nature exquisitely rendered in more muted but sophisticated colours. The sky appears tactile and restless with scudding clouds and wind skillfully evoked by loose and bold brushstrokes arching over the small and vulnerable village buildings. The dark mass of trees on the right hand side of the canvas tower over the viewer as he wanders into the picture led by the diminishing lane. Provenance Palais des Beaux-Arts de Bruxelles Brussels Galerie Le Centaure Brussels Acquired from the above by the family of the present owner in the 1950s Thence by descent Exhibited Brussels Galerie Le Centaure no. 19 To be included in the forthcoming Maurice de Vlaminck Catalogue raisonne being prepared by Ma•the Valles-Bled and Godelieve de Vlaminck under the sponsorship of the Wildenstein Institute.
