WYNFORD DEWHURST (1864-1941) VALLEY OF THE CREUSE Signed, bears title upon a label on the stretcher, oil on canvas (stamped for L. Besnard) 59 x 72cm. * Despite studying in the studio of Jean Leon Gerome and being subjected to the master's rigorously classical methods, Dewhurst became a fervent champion of Impressionism and extolled the skill of Claude Monet in particular. In his divisive work, `Impressionist Painting: Its Genesis and Development` (London,1904), Dewhurst posited the heretical idea of Impressionism being essentially English in origin as Turner and Constable had been the first artists to explore the true potential of light and colour in landscape. Nonetheless, Dewhurst's reverence for Monet was absolute and he adopted much the same palette and technique in his own intensely lit mature landscapes. In What is Impressionism, published in Contemporary Review in 1911, the artist recalled his own Damascene moment upon seeing the revelatory quality of the light on the Seine between Paris and Rouen: "I remember distinctly, during the summer of 1901, at Les Andelys-on-Seine, that upon two days and for two hours in the afternoons of those days all Nature, animate and inanimate, bore the aspect of things seen under a strong glare of violet light, exactly as though a tinted glass were suspended between the sun's rays and the earth. The effect was most curious and disturbing. Nature appears to be toneless and flat. Highlights and shadows are attenuated almost to extinction, whilst in this dull purple glare the heat became more intense than ever, possibly through lack of wind, for all was still." At first, the choice of violet hues seems counter intuitive in a rural landscape lush with green hills and blue water, but Dewhurst shared the Impressionists' wonder for the interpretation of light upon objects. The fractal and prismatic qualities of light enchanted the Impressionists and, foremost among them, Monet saw the potential for creating a preternatural atmosphere in his work by the use of an intense blueish light that bordered on purple. Monet's `Valley of the Creuse` (Boston, Museum of Fine Arts) dates from 1889 whilst Dewhurst's `Sunrise Effect: Valley of the Creuse` was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1916. The idyllic, unpeopled majesty of these subjects may be seen as a calming counterpoint to the ravages of the Great War taking place just a little further north at the Western Front. A similar subject entitled `The Blue Valley`, c.1908, 81.3 x 100.3cm, is in the Manchester City Art Gallery (the gift of E. A. Knight of Knutsford, Cheshire) ++ A few small flaked losses, most notably in the sky upper right
