Description
A fine and interesting oil on mahogany panel historical scene by John Watkins Chapman Exh.1880-1903. The work is beautifully done in exquisite detail and shows a seated man at a table examining a deed, all in a time period of the late seventeenth century. The painting is in excellent untouched condition and is signed with the signature being hidden in the skirting board of the interior. John Watkins Chapman was a mezzotint portrait engraver and genre painter; his most famous work is a painting of The Old Curiosity Shop from the Dickens novel. Chapman was born, and later worked in London, exhibiting more than thirty paintings at the RA from 1897 to 1903. He also exhibited extensively at both the British Institution and at Suffolk Street with a remarkable 112 work. This work is a classic example of the artist and retains the original gilt frame which is in untouched condition with some wear appropriate to age. A fine example of genre painting that is ready to hang. C.1900.
