HENRY SCOTT TUKE, RA, RWS (1858-1929) BLUE-JACKETS YARN signed and dated 1905, watercolour heightened with white, 24.5 x 45.5cm Recorded in the artist`s Register under R407. The models were Harry Cleave and Bert White. It was sold for £42. Provenance: with Anthony Mitchell, Nottingham, from whom bought by the present vendor, c1985 (£13,500). Exhibited: Royal Society of Painters in Watercolours, Spring 1904. The present watercolour is one of three mentioned in Tuke`s diary entry for 6 Februry 1904: "took up three watercolours `Blue-Jackets in a Country Inn`, `All the News of the Voyage` and `A Lowestoft Boat` to RWS`. The two models, Bert White and Harry Cleave were apprentices at Falmouth Docks and were frequently in trouble for playing practical jokes, or pretending to be injured. They were frequently laid-off which allowed them to model for Tuke and they appear in many of his most important pictures painted between 1901 and 1904, including Ruby, Gold and Malachite (R374, 1901), The Run Home (R380, 1901-02), Noonday Heat (R382, 1902, exhibited at the RA the following year), The Stowaway (R396,1903) and The Three Companions (R484, 1905). We are grateful for the assistance of John Tonkin of Falmouth Art Gallery in the cataloguing of this watercolour.++In fine condition with solitary tiny spot of foxing.
