Louise Rayner - Английские улочки

Давно планировала показать картины этой художницы. Вчера меня немного опередила своим постом [livejournal.com profile] b_a_n_s_h_e_e. Поэтому я в свою подборку вкдючила те картины, котрые не попали в ее пост.

Louise Rayner (1832 - 1924).

Louisa Rayner was born in 1832 in Matlock Bath, Derbyshire and moved to London when she was a child. At about fifteen years of age, she took up drawing.

It was at the Royal Academy, London that Louise Rayner first exhibited. At that time she painted in oil – architectural interiors alone. But it wasn't long before she transferred to working in watercolour. Prior to 1860 her paintings did not include many figures, but once she began to include them, she discovered that this added liveliness and was well assisted by her eye for the detail of human behaviour.

During her most active period, Louise painted a large number of church interiors. What she would really become known for, however, was her rendition of ancient streets and picturesquely decaying buildings in many of the major cities and towns of Britain and Northern France. Among her subjects were Lincoln and Salisbury cathedrals; the Household Cavalry at Windsor and John Knox's house, Edinburgh. Louise was also taking commissions for work in Chester, and is known to have been living there in 1865, prior to taking up more permanent lodgings.

Each of Louise Rayner’s works is a labour of love, carefully drawn and admirably finished. In her deep-toned interiors of grand old churches, she has worked out a speciality of her own. But she is equally happy in soft Devonian landscapes, quaint picturesque old townscapes, antique gateways, ancient High Streets; she seems to linger fondly over curious bits of pavement, moss-grown walls, storeyed windows, historic oak furniture, sunlighted groups of citizens, eighteenth-century or Tudor shop fronts and signboards, patiently transcribing and illuminating them with clear or brilliant atmospheric effects.

Как я люблю такие картины! Я помню в детстве у бабушки висела картина очень похожая на эти и я очень любила её рассматривать, всех людей, повозки, магазинчики. А потом она куда-то пропла. Жаль.

Самое интересное, что в небольших городах, да и не в центре Лондона оно по-прежнему так же. :)
