| signed lower right; with artist's label on reverse |
| oil on canvas board |
| 18 by 22cm., 7 by 8.5in. |
| Provenance: |
| Exhibited: |
| Literature: |
| Notes:Stuart Morle was born near Liverpool and studied Fine Art at the
Central School of Art & Design in London from 1979-82. On
completing his degree course, and having won an Italian
Government Scholarship, Morle went to live in Siena, Italy. There he
established himself as a portrait painter working for both British
and Italian clients. In 1996 he was commissioned to portray Anne,
the Princess Royal. In early 2000 he moved to Ireland and is
presently living and working in Dublin. Morle’s approach to
painting is based on a reinterpretation of traditional forms applied
to contemporary life, in which he uses both traditional and modern
methods to arrive at the final image. For Morle, modernism and
abstraction have avoided the challenges of illustrating the realism
of contemporary life. Since 2005 Stuart Morle has been spending
some time each year painting in Italy. See also lots 7, 197 and 200.

| Literature: |
| Notes:In the catalogue introduction to this exhibition, Dorothy Walker, Dublin, 24 May 1986, makes reference to a quote by poet Seamus Heaney from
the Irish Imagination, 1971. In this text Heaney describes T.P. Flanagan’s work as follows, “…Flanagan’s pictures insinuate themselves into the
memory like watermarks... what invites the eye back again and again is the fetch of water and air,
their mutual flirtation, their eternal triangle with moody light….” Flanagan was first invited to exhibit
at the Ritchie Hendriks Gallery in 1962. This was followed by his first one-man show in 1964. From
1964 to 1987 he exhibited in one-man shows biannually at the Hendriks Gallery. This exhibition, from June to November 1987, represented 25 years
of fruitful relations between artist and dealer. |
