Alfred D.Bastin 1849-1913 Watercolour Mending Nets
We are delighted to offer for sale this lovely and quite rare watercolour by the artist Alfred Dickman Bastin, who has signed the painting A. D. Bastin in the lower left hand corner. We say that the watercolour is rare as so little of his work reaches the market.
The painting depicts a scene on the foreshore, with a young woman, shawl over her shoulders and one hand on her hip, is holding a net, with an older woman wearing a bonnet is doing the mending. This is typical of the work of this artist, as his paintings very often show the interplay between two female characters.
Alfred Dickman Bastin was born in the St. Pancras district of London in 1849. Interestingly in 1861, he was a visitor, aged 11, at the home of his future wife Emily Elizabeth Dickman, aged 8, who he married in 1883. Judging by their names, they were probably cousins.
He lived in Manchester for 3 years between 1879 and 1881, but by 1891, he and his wife had moved to Egham in Surrey, with their daughter Emily Muriel Russell Bastin and one servant. By 1911, they were living in a 10 roomed house in Downview Road, West Worthing in Sussex with two servants and his spinster sister, where he died in 1913.
He was a painter of genre in oils and watercolours and obviously made a comfortable living. He exhibited from 1871-1907 in London and the provinces, including 1 at the Royal Academy, 13 at the Birmingham City Art Gallery, 10 at the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool, 3 at the Royal Society of British Artists and 1 at Manchester City Art Gallery and 1 at the Royal Oil Painters Institute.
He is listed in The Dictionary of British Artists (Collectors' Club) and The Dictionary of Victorian Painters by Christopher Wood. Auction results for this artist may be found at the usual sites.
The watercolour has been newly doubled mounted in two tone acid free mountcard and newly framed in a 1 1/8" bronzed frame and will be supplied wired and ready to hang.
Image size: 9 7/8" x 7 7/8" - 25.1cm x 20cm
Frame size: 17 1/8" x 14 3/4" - 43.5cm x 37.5cm
