About the Item
A vintage, original watercolour by Charlie Mackesy, in good condition and signed in pencil with the date 1986. The scene captures a quiet moment of companionship on a sunlit bench by the shore. Two women sit close together, one absorbed in a book, whilst the other appears to be taking a nap or enjoying the sunrays - their postures relaxed and reflective. The artist’s economical, expressive line work and washes of pale blues, soft greys, and warm earth tones give the composition a breezy, outdoor mood. One woman wears a broad-brimmed hat, while the other leans slightly toward her companion, suggesting a gentle conversation or shared silence. A dog lies asleep beneath the bench, its restful form anchored by the bench’s slats and the hint of a shadow on the ground. Small details—a bottle or bottle-like object on the seat, the casual draping of garments, and the suggestion of a gentle sea breeze—imbue the piece with everyday tenderness. This work exemplifies Mackesy’s humane lyricism and his graceful studies of everyday life. The impressionistic handling of light, colour, and gesture creates a timeless, intimate moment. Titled Women on a Bench, it remains a collectable example from Mackesy’s early period.
Charlie Mackesy is a British Author, artist,
Illsutrator who, throughout his career, has explored a variety of themes through his art, including Jazz, Musicians, the Prodigals, Angels, and studies of people from life.
