About the Item

Peter Newcombe Winter Teazels b.1943 Oil on panel, signed lower right and dated 2015 Image size: 7 2/3 x 10 2/3 inches (19.5 x 27 cm) Original frame The meticulous detail of this oil painting is its oustanding feature, with each aspect rendered in minute detail. Newcombe is a master at painting snow, accentuating both its texture and how it interacts with objects in physical space. This work depicts spiky teazel plants sagging under the weight of a recent snowfall, whilst a wintery morning sky provides an atmospheric backdrop. Peter Newcombe Newcombe (b.1943) was born in Blisworth, Northamptonshire. He studied illustration and etching at Northampton School of Art, where he won a travelling scholarship. His work first came to public attention in 1968 with a set of twelve large drawings illustrating ‘The Shepherds Calendar’ by John Clare, which were featured on BBC television. In 1970 he was awarded a major art grant from the Elizabeth T. Greenshield Foundation in Canada. At this time he began exhibiting widely in London including at the Royal Academy, the Royal Society of British Artists, and the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolour. In 1979 he designed a set of flower stamps for the Post Office. The subject matter of Peter Newcombe’s paintings is gathered almost entirely from the area of Northamptonshire in which he lives. His paintings are intense studies of landscape and flora in all seasons, and he has a particular interest in old buildings and wild flowers.

Located in London, GB
Oil on canvas, signed and dated '1975' bottom right Image size: 10 1/4 x 12 inches (26 x 30cm) Contemporary style frame This still life is a meticulous study by the artist of a selection of plants and flowers that could be found in any English hedgerow or roadside verge. Here Newcombe has depicted wild grasses, flowering nettles and dandelions in various states in their life cycle; pre-bud, full flower and having lost all of the fluffy seeds. The detail in this work is fine and reminiscent of the accuracy that was executed in 17th century Dutch artworks...

Oil on panel, signed & dated lower right 1975 Image size: 9 1/2 x 10 1/5 inches (24.13 x 25.9 cm) Ebonised Dutch style frame In this panel by Newcombe, the arrival of spring unfolds across the British landscape. As part of his four seasons collection, Spring captures both the seasonal lightness and the agricultural renewal of the land.

Above, the sky breaks free from its cloudy cover, revealing a bright blue expanse, signalling sunnier days ahead. Peter Newcombe...
