John Livesey
Title:
Garden scene with tree in blossom (a framed original oil
painting on board)
Description: John
Livesey (1926-1990) was a well known painter in oils
mainly of garden scenes and interiors, often with
flowers or plants. Born in London he studied art at the
St Martin's School of Art under Ruskin Spear. Livesey
exhibited widely in Europe and often painted on the
continent. His work often has heavy impasto, applied
with a palette knife, and was illustrated in Jack
Beddington's invaluable book 'Young Artists of Promise'
published by The Studio Publications in 1957.
The
present work is an oil painting on board signed by the
artist lower left and measuring about 30 x 18 inches
board size and about 38 x 27 inches in its modern gold
coloured frame. We think the subject is likely to be
taken from Italy or perhaps Switzerland in the Spring.
The painting is in very good original condition as is
the frame save for some minor losses...
