Antique Watercolour Painting Sheep on Cliff Top
Artist Frederick Parr (1887-1970)
F. Parr was born on 13th November 1887 in Exeter. His father, Frederick William Parr, was a tailor, who himself had been born in Exeter, whilst his mother Rosa had been born in Martock, Somerset.
In 1903, both Frederick, then living at 32 Blackall Road, and his brother, Stephen, still living with their parents at 24, Blackall Road, won prizes in a local drawing competition. Indeed, it was Stephen who first embarked on an artistic career. Frederick, then aged 23, on the other hand, was working as a railway clerk, having started as an apprentice at the goods department in Fore Street, Exeter in 1902.
He resigned from the railway service on 24th November 1914, presumably to serve in the War. Whilst, during his time as a railway employee, Frederick may have been able to make use of the railway network to do some sketching in Cornwall, his painting career seems to have started after the First World War and there are references to him exhibiting paintings at Eland’s Gallery, Exeter in 1922 and 1924.
The images are the best I could achieve due to the non-reflective glass. This has also effect the true colours which may not be as strong depending on your monitor you are viewing on.
Medium Watercolour
