Hercules Brabazon Brabazon, NEAC (1821-1906) Campo San Michele, Venicesigned with initials 'HBB' (lower left)watercolour on paper15.5 x 23cmProvenance:With Walker's Galleries, London, 1958Exhibited:London, Beaux Arts Gallery, Exhibition of Watercolours and Pastels by the late Hercules Brabazon Brabazon, 1928, no. F35Brabazon was born in Paris, the younger son of Hercules Sharpe and Anne Mary, daughter of Sir Anthony Brabazon, 1st Bt. In 1832, the family moved to Oaklands, an estate near Sedlescombe, East Sussex. He studied mathematics at Trinity College, Cambridge. While his father envisaged a career in law for him, Brabazon chose a different path and ventured to Rome to pursue his studies in music and art. He enrolled at the prestigious Accademia di Santa Cecilia and Accademia di San Luca. Despite his father's attempts to coax him back by reducing his allowance, Brabazon gained financial independence in 1847 when he inherited family estates in Connaught, under the condition that he would assume the Brabazon surname. This newfound freedom allowed him to embark on a life filled with exploration, artistic study and painting, finding inspiration in the works of artists such as Velázquez and J. M. W. Turner. In 1858, Brabazon inherited the Oaklands estate, but entrusted its management to his brother-in-law as he continued his ventures abroad. His travels took him primarily across Europe, with occasional trips to Africa and India. Preferring to describe himself as a 'gentleman amateur' living 'for Art and Sunshine', he refrained from exhibiting or selling his work until the later years of his life. Encouraged by artist friends, most notably John Singer Sargent, Brabazon finally embraced the idea of exhibiting his work publicly. He made his debut at the New English Art Club and subsequently held successful one-man exhibitions at the Goupil Gallery.Framed 33.5 x 43cm
