Sheehy, ‘Walter Osborne in Quimper (sic) and Pont Aven, 1883’, in Old Limerick Journal, vol.25, summer 1989, p.28, illustrated; K. McConkey, ‘Early Morning in the Markets’ in ‘Lavery & Osborne, Observing Life’, 2019, p.84-85, illustrated; Dr Julian Campbell, The Irish Impressionists, Irish Artists in France and Belgium, 1850 – 1914, NGI, p.212Early Morning in the Markets, Quimperlé is an attractive Continental street scene such as Walter Osborne loved to paint. It shows several Breton figures at a small market, with a colourful display of vegetables, in Quimperlé on a sunny day. After completing his studies in Antwerp in 1883 Osborne headed south west to Brittany to paint ‘en plein air’. He worked in Dinan, Pont Aven and at Quimperlé, often together with fellow former students from Ireland and England. Early Morning in the Markets, Quimperlé, set in the lower part of Quimperlé, is a companion piece to Osborne’s best-known Breton painting Apple Gathering, Quimperlé, 1883, (NGI), set in the upper town, both pictures featuring a church, and both being inscribed ‘Quimperlé’.Quimperlé had developed around the confluence of the rivers Elle and Isole, which combined to form the river Laita. The church of Ste-Croix was founded in the 12th century, based on the plan of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem. It was famous for its magnificent apse, and became one of the most important spiritual centres in Brittany.(1) In the upper part of the town, the church of St Michel, Notre Dame de l’Assomption dated from the 13th and 15th centuries. Quimperlé was a peaceful Finistère town, with a wooded river valley, apple orchards and mild climate, narrow streets cutting down to the lower quarter, bridges, and old houses with gardens by the river. The arrival of the railway line in 1862 made the town much more accessible to visitors. The establishment of schools in the 1870s and 1880s encouraged the education of local girls and boys. (2) Although less well-known as an artist’s colony than Pont-Aven and Concarneau, Quimperlé had a thriving community of British and Irish painters there from the 1880s to the early 20th century, notably Stanhope Forbes, Henry La Thangue, George Clausen, Osborne, J.M.Kavanagh, Blandford Fletcher, Charlotte Benson and Norman Garstin, as well as Norwegian Fritz Thalow.(3) Forbes had moved to tranquil Quimperlé because Pont-Aven and Concarneau had become too crowded, and because studios were cheap. It is possible that Osborne may have done so for the same reasons.Early Morning in the Markets, Quimperlé features several figures: a girl and elderly woman, a boy, a woman shopping and a stall holder. The cheerful whites and blues of the Breton costumes and the green canopy in sunlight attract our attention. In the foreground a young girl and woman are seated behind a colourful array of vegetables, waiting for customers. The cheerful rosy-cheeked child contrasts with the elderly woman, whose headdress casts a shadow on her face. The woman at the stall with white bonnet and collar, faded garments and shopping basket, viewed from behind, is an archetypical Breton figure by Osborne. To her right is a boy in dark Breton hat, face in profile, and smock. Behind them the market woman stands under the green sunlit canopy; although in shadow, her face has a smiling Oriental calmness. The edge of another stall can be seen to the left, perhaps with another stall-holder present.Early Morning in the Markets, Quimperlé is set in front of the east door of the church of Ste-Croix. It is a fine example of Osborne’s early Realism. He applies loving detail to every part of the picture – not just to the figures, but to the freshly picked vegetables arranged along the pavement, the wickerwork baskets, earthenware jar and weighing scales, cobblestones and weathered stone and woodwork of the church, even to a few scattered cabbage leaves. The textured brushwork and variety of delicate colours: blues, beige, white, pinks, greens, russets and ochres, bring the surface of the canvas alive. Yet, together with the meticulous Realism, a narrative element is present: the theme of youth and age, the ‘conversating piece’ between the woman at the stall and the youth looking on and reaching out his arm. The difference in postures suggest that Osborne may have based his figures on preliminary pencil drawings, then assembled them together in the painting. (4)Osborne rarely identified the location of his pictures, so the fact that he inscribed the name of ‘Quimperlé’ on both Early Morning in the Markets, Quimperlé and Apple Gathering indicates the importance which he attached to these paintings. Early Morning in the Markets, Quimperlé was exhibited at the RHA in 1884 and has remained in the same Co Dublin family collection since, or almost since, the artist’s lifetime.Julian Campbell, April 20241.

Francis Wiles, Irish (1889-1956) "Resting Nude," marble, signed  and dated 'F. Wiles, 1932' approx. 20"high x 30" long. (1) Naturalistic, but with a degree of stylisation, Frank Wile’s marble sculpture Seated Woman depicts a nude figure, turning, with her head resting on her hands. Both the woman and the rock she sits on are carved from one piece of stone. The artist’s working of stone, and his depiction of the human form, reveals the influence of Oliver Sheppard, and in turn Auguste Rodin. The smooth polished legs and arms of the woman contrast with areas of stone left roughly chiselled. The theme of this work relates closely to Wiles’s 1914 bronze The Dawn of Womanhood, in the Ulster Museum,   Born in Larne, Co. Antrim, Francis Wiles was the son of David, a civil servant, and Margaret Wiles, an accomplished woodcarver. Francis—or Frank as he was known—studied at the Belfast School of Art under Seamus Stoupe, and also at the Metropolitan School of Art in Dublin, where his tutor was Oliver Sheppard. He assisted Sheppard and also later taught at the Metropolitan School. Wiles was a prize-winning student, winning the Patterson scholarship at the Belfast School of Art, and a Gold Medal at the MSA in 1913. During his career, he specialised in portraits and figurative sculpture and allegorical works. He became a member of the Royal Ulster Academy, and also exhibited at the RHA, RA and RSA. Among the public sculptures he worked on are the War Memorial in Newcastle, Co. Down. This was designed by Lady Mabel Annesley, who commissioned Wiles to sculpt a lion, using granite from the Mourne mountains, in a style that echoes Assyrian and ancient Egyptian sculpture. In 1927 hr exhibited a granite sketch design for the lion at the RHA. That same year he showed a bronze relief portrait of the President of the Supreme Court in the Irish Republic, J. Creed Meredith, at an exhibition of “Irish Portraits by Ulster artists”. A memorial exhibition of Wiles’s work was held at the Old Museum, Belfast, in 1958. There is also a sculpture by him at St. Columba’s College in Dublin. Peter Murray 2024 Provenance: The Bell Gallery, the Personal Collection of Nelson Bell.
