Artist:
Guy Malet
Title:
A Village Road in the Chilterns (an original watercolour
painting, framed)
Description: Guy
Seymour Warre Malet, RBA, SWE
(1900-73) was known primarily as a landscape and figure
engraver but he was also an accomplished painter in oil
and watercolour. He
studied at the London School of Art
under Eastman and Hassall, and at the
Grosvenor
School of Art under Iain MacNab. Malet exhibited at the
Royal Academy,
Royal Society of British Artists, Society of Wood
Engravers, New English Art Club, in the provinces and
abroad. He was elected RBA 1936,
SWE 1947, Coventry and Warwick Society of Artists 1945,
and a member of the Society of
Artist Printmakers. His work is represented in several
public collections.
Malet lived in London, then at
Leamington Spa during the war years, later at Seaford in
Sussex and finally in Ditchling.
The present work is an original watercolour titled 'A
village road in the Chilterns'. It measures about 10.3
x 12.2 inches image size, and about 18 x 20 inches in
its good quality limed oak frame. The watercolour is in
excellent condition, as is the frame, and it is
inscribed lower right by the artist 'Chilterns'. The
work has the estate stamped signature, which
we believe was applied after Malet's death by his
artistic executor. The watercolour most likely dates to
the 1950s...
