We are offering for sale a superb watercolour/gouache by the artist JOHN BARAGWANATH KING, who has signed the painting Baragwanath King in the lower right hand corner and inscribed it verso 'Near Hayter Tor, Dartmoor'. The painting depicts a stream winding its way through a rather boggy area with a rocky tor in the background. The sky is dramatic - typical of the artist.

JOHN BARAGWANATH KING 1864-1939, was born near Penzance in Cornwall. He originally trained as an engineer, but gave it up to become an artist. He painted principally in watercolours. He lived with his wife Gladys in St. Austell in Cornwall, but maintained a studio at 55 Connaught Avenue, Plymouth, Devon. He exhibited 1903-1914, 1 painting at the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolour and 48 at the Baillie Gallery. He also exhibited in Paris and at other Continental galleries.

One of his paintings was purchased by Queen Alexandra and then further works by King Edward VII. We have read on google that he fell out of favour, after selling one of his paintings to Kaiser Wilhelm just prior to WWI, but how accurate this is, we do not know.

He also published 'Arthur and Others in Cornwall' and other works.

His biographical details may be found in The Dictionary of British Artists, by The Collectors Club and The Dictionary of British Artist by Grant M. Waters.

Auctions results achieved for works by this artist may be found at artprice (218 listings), findartinfo (60), arcadja (49) and artnet (9).

The painting is double mounted to complement and is framed in a gilt 1" frame. It is ready to hang.

Medium Watercolours/gouache on Watman Board.
