Lot description

Hercules Brabazon Brabazon, British 1821-1906- The Green Field; pencil and pastels on paper, signed with initials 'HBB' (lower right), 10.6 x 21.5 cm. Provenance: with Chris Beetles, London. Private Collection, UK. Exhibited: London, Chris Beetles, 'Art & Sunshine: The work of Hercules Brabazon Brabazon (1821-1906)', May 1997, no.181. Note: Brabazon made extensive sketching trips to Egypt, India, North Africa, Morocco, Tunisia, Spain, and Italy over the course of his career. Following in the footsteps of J.M.W. Turner (1775-1851) and Richard Parkes Bonington (1802-1828), his light-filled works on paper are highly atmospheric, and invariably executed with a confident, loose handling which imparts them with a palpable sense of spontaneity and movement.
