About the Item
This lovely Scottish Impressionist Victorian oil painting is by noted artist Joseph Henderson. Painted circa 1880 it is entitled Washing Day. The composition is of two women laying out white sheets to dry on flat rocks by the sea. Two little children sit by some upturned boats amusing themselves whilst the women work. Seagulls wheel over head and boats are out on the aquamarine sea beneath a hazy sky. The Scottish Impressionistic brushwork is just superb and the dashes of colour in the foreground and vibrant sea are just beautiful. This is an excellent Scottish Impressionist painting with interesting subject matter and a superb example of Joseph Henderson's work.

Joseph Henderson RSW (1832-1908) was a Scottish painter of landscapes, genre, portraits and marinescape. His genre was particularly painting working men such as shepherds, crofters, peddlers, cobblers, fishermen and farm labourers. However he also painted Scottish country and coastal scenery. Henderson studied at the Trustees Academy in Edinburgh and started to work as a portrait painter but having done so for about twenty years he discovered his true vocation which was marine painting. He mastered the painting of the sea in all its different conditions and light. Henderson exhibited his work at the Royal Scottish Academy and at the Royal Glasgow Institute of the Fine Arts. He also exhibited at the Royal Academy in London from 1871 to 1886 and in Suffolk Street Galleries from 1882 to 1884. He was the President of the Glasgow Art Club, in which city he settled in 1852. Henderson married three times: in 1855, Helen Cosh; in 1869, Helen Young of Strathaven (died 1871); and in 1872, Eliza Thomson. Two of his sons John Henderson (1860-1924) and J.Morris Henderson also known as Joseph Morris Henderson RSA (1863-1936) also became painters in their own right. His daughter Marjory Henderson married the well known Scottish painter William McTaggart, who painted in 1894 a wonderful portrait of Joseph Henderson which was presented by the family of Joseph Henderson in 1925 to the Glasgow Museums.
