* JOHN BELLANY CBE RA HRSA (SCOTTISH 1942 - 2013), BOATBUILDING - PORT SETON (1964) oil on board, signed 53cm x 76cm Framed Note: It is well established that John Bellany painted on hardboard or wood until 1969 and never thereafter. The transition to using canvas was ``a struggle`` for several months and his style of painting evolved into a more modern and overtly expressionist style. More precisely, the completion of his second triptych ``Homage To John Knox`` (1969) was the last time he used board. This very specific point in Bellany`s career is hugely significant as it defines his early body of work which is noted for meticulous handling of paint and glazes. His use of cool colours reflects the harsh and cold conditions of the fishing villages he grew up in. His early work often combines an element of realism with a sense of mystery and even hauntedness and his characteristic bland backgrounds from this period contrast strongly with his later work. The commercial and academic appreciation of Bellany`s pre 1969 ``on board`` work, whilst always strong, has increased since his sad death in 2013 and recent auction results reflect this with figures of £24.000 (hammer), £49,250 (premium) and £57,500 (premium) all being achieved in 2014 for pre 1969 examples of varying sizes. The respected art establishment figure Charles Booth-Clibborn of Paragon Press who knew John Bellany and commissioned work from him sold ``Boatbuilding, Port Seton`` to the current owner with a handwritten letter dating the work to 1964 (copy of letter accompanies this lot). This painting is one of two of the same fundamental scene. The other painting, a slightly larger 90cm x 120cm oil on board is in The Scottish Government Art Collection. There are a considerable number of differences between the two pictures but perhaps the most interesting being the small dark figure of a man wearing a hat and walking with a stick to the left of the bows of the two boats. We don`t know who this figure is but it`s possible that it`s John`s grandfather (who owned a boatbuilding yard). In the version belonging to The Scottish Government Art Collection, this same figure is now almost obscured by the bow of the rear boat. This may have strong symbolic meaning relating to the passing of time or indeed, the passing of whoever the figure might be. However, nothing was ``without significance`` with Bellany and the ``progression`` of this figure between the two paintings enables us to be very confident that the SGAC picture is a later version of the painting offered here.
