This charming pencil sketch of Montepulciano is signed by the artist Antony Bream in the lower right and dated '77. The piece measures 11 inches by 15 inches (27.9 by 38.1 cm). Antony Bream held his first major exhibition at the Fine Art Society in 1979, and subsequently has had one-man shows at numerous West End galleries including Derek Johns, St James’s Art Group, Messum’s and Rafael Valls. He has received major commissions from industry and commerce for large figure paintings, including the much admired Bar picture at Green’s Restaurant in St James’s. Bream has worked extensively as a painter of portraits, interiors, and landscapes, and has travelled widely, painting en plein air in Australia, India, North Africa, Egypt, Yemen, Turkey, Kenya, the USA and Europe. More recently he has concentrated on a group of large-scale interiors and still lifes. To mark their 150th anniversary, Bream was commissioned by the Savile Club in London’s Mayfair to paint a series of interiors of the club and portrait studies of members. This piece was formerly in the collection of the late Julian Bream (1933-2020).
