Watercolour By Frank Archer (1912-1995)
A beautifully detailed painting in the tradition of British Art of the time. Watercolour and bodycolour on laid or textured paper painted circa 1940. Signed Frank Archer (bottom left). The picture is in excellent condition and has been mounted but not framed. The location of the church has yet to be identified.
Frank Archer was a painter and etcher, born in Walthamstow and brought up there during the First World War. His studies in Italy were cut short by the outbreak of war, and he moved into teaching, eventually joining the staff of Kingston College of Art under another distinguished painter-etcher, Wilfred Fairclough. He took over from Fairclough. He joined the Royal Society of Painters-Etchers in 1940, and became first an Associate of the Royal Watercolour Society in 1972 and later a Fellow. It was during these years that Archer discovered the importance of light – not just illuminating but imparting luminosity, radiance, and intensity of colour, making it a positive and integral part of a painting.
Archer exhibited for many years at The Catto Gallery, London, Gillian Catto observes ” he was one of the finest artists we represented his strong palette was highly influenced by his father s chemist s shop, with its large Winchester jars of iridescent colours”.
