Maitland
From the Royal Parks in London at the turn of the 19th century, through the parks of Paris, Rome, Vienna, New York City and Brooklyn.
A grisaille turned into a trompe l’oeil, symphonies in white, making the transition to oil paints, an exercise for pupils, and vibrant primary colours.
A pupil of Theodore Roussel, who introduced him to Whistler and Sickert, he painted Impressionist plein air oil sketches around London.
