§ John Melville (British, 1902-1986) Still life of yellow tulips in a vase signed lower right ""John Melville"" watercolour 31 x 25cm (12 x 10in) John Melville is one of English art`s neglected modernists par excellence. Working in relative isolation in Birmingham, his compelling hybrid style - a mixture of surrealism and cubism - yielded memorable images of the figure or still life. In spite of his provincial position, he was by no means unknown - he exhibited with leading dealers like Lucy Wertheim and Erica Brausen, won the critical endorsement of Herbert Read and showed many times with the English surrealist group. His later work saw this gifted and individual artist step beyond the influence of Picasso and create wildly expressive landscapes of a disturbing, disquieting or apocalyptic kind. Although generally out of sync with the hedonistic Sixties, Melville nonetheless painted with an imaginative overdrive that broke all stylistic categories and in so doing followed the example of Picasso in anticipating the thematic angst and formal frenzy of 1980s neo-expressionist painting. Melville was a painter`s painter, a natural colourist of breadth, charm and distinction, and a genuine visionary who refused to compromise with the art establishment. The quality always wins out in the long run and Melville reminds us that to have been out on a limb, like Theodore Major in the north, or John Tunnard in Cornwall, could be a symptom of genius at play. Lots of thunderflies under the glass but image is fine.
