Lot description

Robert Dawson R.C.A. (1926-1997), "October Morning towards Anglesey", signed, titled on verso, oil on board, 49 x 72cm.; 19.25 x 28.25in. "Bob Dawson was a man of total integrity. He was a large and gentle man who lived with the high standards he set himself while producing work of very great merit. Because he painted what he loved he was able to communicate that love to others. For this reason, I believe, his work will always be appreciated long after so much of the facile creations produced today have been forgotten. Love is the casualty of the cold world of modern art, a brash world of strident gestures. In the middle of it work created by the quiet unassuming man from Nottingham will be seen increasingly as pictures of genuine merit bringing warmth and satisfaction to all who own them". Sir Kyffin Williams R.A. Llanfairpwllgwyngyll, Anglesey. 2000
