Lot 122

Description

Michael Angelo Rooker, ARA, 
British 1746-1801- 

View of Llanthony Abbey; 

graphite, grey and blue ink and wash on paper, inscribed 'Llanthony Abbey' verso, 24.1 x 42.2 cm. 

Provenance: 
with Thomas Agnew & Sons, London. 
Private Collection, UK. 

Note: 
Rooker received training from his father, the artist Edward Rooker (c.1712-1774), alongside the landscape artist Paul Sandby (1731-1809). Rooker's skill as an architectural painter, for which he was best known, was likely further informed by his experience as a scene painter at the Haymarket Theatre, allowing him to depict streets and their surrounding buildings with convincing detail and depth. In 1788, he began to make annual tours of the country, producing a large number of watercolours and a few oil paintings of famous abbeys, architectural ruins and public buildings. 
Another drawing of Llanthony Abbey by Rooker sold at Sotheby's, Glamorgan, on 19 October 1999 (lot 4).
