Sidney Yates Johnson C.1900 Oil Scotland
We are offering an oil on canvas by the artist SIDNEY YATES JOHNSON, who has signed the painting with his monogram in the lower left hand corner. The painting depicts a river view, in the Scottish highlands with a high peak in the distance. The trees lining the river bank are reflected in the still waters of the river.
SIDNEY YATES JOHNSON, who flourished from 1890-1926, was an extremely prolific painter, principally in oil, of highland landscapes, river scenes and marine/coastal works. However, as he obviously did not exhibit his works as he is not listed in any of the standard reference books for the period, there is little known about him. He painted much in the style of Frank Hider and F. E. Jamieson and joins Jack Ducker, and Jamieson (including his many pseudonyms) in being very much a mystery artist. To quote from Jeremy Wood's excellent book 'Hidden Talents'.........
'A prolific painter of landscapes in oil who was working from about 1890 until about 1926. His work has a distinctive style and is similar to that of Frank Hider. The subjects are often in pairs and usually Cornish coastal scenes, beach scenes, highland landscapes and cottages in a rural setting. The artist did not often inscribe the work with the location, but it was usually dated, with the signature S. Y. Johnson scratched in the wet paint. He sometimes signed with a monogram.'
Auction results for this artist are available from artprice.com (320 listings), findartinfo.com (138), askart.com (38) and artnet.com. His works seem to fetch very high prices in America, where the average price of works of varying sizes appears to be in the region of $1,500, according to what is currently listed on google.
The painting has been newly framed in a 2 3/4" gilt frame and is ready to hang.
