Description
Samuel John Peploe RSA (British, 1871-1935)
New Abbey, Dumfriesshire
oil on canvas
48 x 57cm (18 7/8 x 22 7/16in).
Footnotes:
Provenance
With Ewan Mundy Fine Art, Glasgow.
Anon. sale, Christie's, London, 8 March 2001, lot 152.
The late Sir John Craven (acquired at the above sale).
Exhibited
Edinburgh, Aitken Dott & Son, Peploe Memorial Exhibition, 1947, no. 64.
Upon his friends and fellow artists, E A Taylor and Jessie Marion King moving to Kirkcudbright in 1914, Peploe found himself a regular visitor to the southwest of Scotland. These trips provided a break from studio painting, and he enjoyed exploring and capturing this new landscape.
Peploe's works around Dumfries and Galloway have a distinctive earthy quality, often built up with rich greens and browns that differentiates them from his other landscape paintings, perhaps most notably in France and on Iona. As is typical of the scenery in this part of Scotland, the present work shows a verdant landscape, with the familiar threat of rain crossing the sky. This vibrant scene being rendered with rich and expressive brushstrokes typical of Peploe's most evocative landscape paintings.
