Spring Tree William BANKS FORTESCUE RWA RBSA (1850
Spring Tree
William Banks Fortescue RWA RBSA (1850 - 1924)
Late 19th Century
Watercolour
LOT NOTES
This picture is a more unusual offering from the artist, as the majority of his work is in oil. Banks Fortescue faithfully depicts the scenery and images around him and this gentle painting of a country landscape with a tree bursting into its Spring greenery is typical of the realism he brings to his work. A really lovely watercolour from a much sought after and collected artist. This picture will bring light and cheer to any setting.

ITEM INFORMATION & TERMINOLOGY
Every item we sell is fully guaranteed to be as we describe. We use the same cataloguing terms as most major auction houses The cataloguing terms that we use have the following meanings
1. where the text which forms reads "'by" and is followed by the artist's full name (or the artist's initials, if his full name is unrecorded), the work is in our opinion by the artist
2. where the expression "attributed to" is used, the work is in our opinion possibly a work by the artist, in whole or in part
3. where the expression "'circle of'" is used, the work is in our opinion a work of the period of the artist and showing his influence
4. where the expression "'follower of"' is used, the work is in our opinion a work executed in the artist's style but not necessarily by a pupil
5. where the expression '"manner of"' is used, the work is in our opinion a work executed in the artist's style but of a later date
6. where the term "after" is used, the work is in our opinion a copy or pastiche (of any date) of a work by the artist.
7. Where the term 'signed...' is used in our opinion the work has been signed by the artist, where the term 'with signature...' or 'bears signature...' is used in our opinion the signature is by a hand other than that of the artist.
ARTIST INFORMATION
William Banks Fortescue was a painter of genre, landscape and still life subjects, mainly in oils. He lived and worked in Newlyn and St Ives in Cornwall for most of his life, although for a short time, between 1883 and 1884, he also worked in Venice. His genre and landscape scenes, which often related to ships and boats, reflect the realism and plein-air concerns of the Cornish painters. He was dedicated to depicting the life of ordinary country people as truthfully as possible, and painted out of doors in order to accurately capture the effects of light and atmosphere. Fortescue exhibited at the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists from 1875 to 1900, becoming ARBSA in 1884 and RBSA in 1899. He also showed in London galleries from 1880, including at the Royal Academy from 1887, with titles such as The Larboat Light and Harvest Festival in a Cornish Fishing Village. William Banks Fortescue was also a regular exhibitor at galleries in the provinces, particularly in Southport, and in Scotland. His work is represented in a number of public collections, including the Atkinson Museum and Art Gallery, Southport.
