Lot 164

Description

Frank Moss Bennett, 
British 1874-1952- 

Outside the Old Britannia; 

oil on canvas, signed, inscribed, and dated 'F M Bennett Sketch 1937' (lower left), 38 x 51 cm. 

Provenance: 
Private Collection, UK. 

Note: 
The present work is a preparatory study for a finished painting by Bennett, of similar dimensions, which sold at Sotheby's Billingshurst, 1 February 1994 (£7,000). The final painting diverges in composition only slightly from this original sketch, with Bennett altering the details of the clothing of the sitter second from the left. The composition is characteristic of Bennett's oeuvre, which consists largely of genre scenes depicting figures in historical dress, often seated and engaged in leisurely or familial pursuits.

VAT
VAT is not charged on the hammer price unless it is stated that there is 'VAT applicable on the hammer price at the end of the description. Buyer's premium is subject to VAT.
