About the Item

‘A Breeze after a Bathe’ by Walter Duncan ARWS (1847-1932). The painting – which depicts three young Victorian ladies and their dogs on Bournemouth beach after a swim – is signed by the artist and dated 1872. In October of that year the engraving of the painting (with the omission of the dogs) appeared in The Illustrated London News. Academy Fine Paintings is fully conversant with the legal exemptions which, under the supreme law of the U.S. Constitution, enable us to ship paintings to America free of reciprocal trade tariffs. Clients should also note that tracked and signed for international shipping is always complimentary. Academy Fine Paintings only offers artwork for sale in the finest condition it can be for its age having been professionally cleaned, conserved, and re-varnished. Walter Duncan studied under his father, the eminent watercolourist Edward Duncan (1803-1882), and at the Heatherley School of Fine Art in London before entering the Royal Academy Schools. For many years Duncan was one of the leading artists working for The Illustrated London News; the world’s first illustrated newspaper and the most popular weekly publication in Victorian Britain. Between 1869 and 1893 Walter Duncan exhibited at the Royal Academy, the Royal Society of British Artists, the Grosvenor Gallery, the New Gallery, and the Royal Watercolour Society. Today his work is held in various international galleries and museums, and in the Royal Collection of King Charles III. He was elected an Associate of the Royal Watercolour Society in 1874.
