John Baragwanath King 1864-1939 Marine Oil
We are offering for sale this large marine oil painting on canvas by the artist John Baragwanath King, who has signed the painting in the lower left hand corner. The painting depicts a fleet of fishing boats heading out to sea to the fishing grounds. The location is most likely off the Cornish coast.
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, but painted some oils, mostly marines and coastal scenes. 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 framed in a 2 1/8" ornate gilt frame. It is ready to hang.
Medium Oils on relined canvas.
