JOSEPH MILNE (SCOTTISH 1857-1911)
Est: £600 - £800
JOSEPH MILNE (SCOTTISH 1857-1911) BY THE LOCH Signed, oil on board 38cm x 54cm (15in x 21in) Joseph Milne was particularly fond of painting cattle and sheep in rural settings. From his known, dated paintings, there are cattle grazing examples from 1895, 1897, 1903 and various other undated examples, such as By the Loch. The specific locations of these landscape pictures are rarely recorded.This picture carries an old and frayed label, verso, from a framer in Oudezijds Voorburgwal, a street and canal in the centre of Amsterdam. Milne exhibited his paintings from Holland in Dunfermline in 1883 (Dunfermline Fine Art Association, 1883. Dordrecht no. 83 and Dutch Village no. 207) and at the Royal Scottish Academy in 1884 (The Maas no. 87 and Dutch Barge no.921), however, his link with Amsterdam remains unexplained. We are grateful to Maurice Millar, author of The Missing Colourist: The Search for John Maclauchlan Milne RSA (privately published in 2022 and available via The Missing Colourist website) for writing this catalogue note.

JOSEPH MILNE (SCOTTISH 1857-1911) YACHTS ON THE SILVERY TAY Signed, oil on canvas 30.5cm x 46cm (12in x 18in) Joseph Milne was born in Aberdeen in February 1859. He was to become the eldest of 10 children. His father and uncle were both comb-makers. As a young child in the 1860s, his family moved to Edinburgh where he would later study at the Royal Scottish Academy (RSA) Life Class, winning the RSA Chalmers Prize in 1885. His first RSA exhibit was A Doorway in 1877 (no.126). He continued exhibiting at the RSA each year until 1902. He was a professional landscape artist all his career. Although he lived in Edinburgh for much of his life, Milne painted in Holland, near Sheffield, on the River Tyne, and in London, as well as in Scotland. His exhibits appeared at the RSA, the Royal Glasgow Institute and the Royal Academy. However, he seems to have had a strong connection to the River Tay and there are various examples of his River Tay paintings – from Perth, down river past Kinfauns and Newburgh, to Dundee and Tayport. His exhibit at the Royal Academy in London in 1892 (no. 970) was By the Banks of the Silvery Tay. Yachts on the Silvery Tay is consistent with Milne’s maritime pictures.In 1908 Milne and his family returned to Scotland after a period in London, and they settled in Dundee. Joseph’s eldest son was the artist John Maclauchlan Milne RSA; father and son painted together in Perthshire and Fife before Joseph’s early death in January 1911.We are grateful to Maurice Millar, author of The Missing Colourist: The Search for John Maclauchlan Milne RSA (privately published in 2022 and available via The Missing Colourist website) for writing this catalogue note.

BIOGRAPHY: Joseph Milne mostly signed his paintings as 'Joe Milne'. As a professional landscape artist, he painted many harbour scenes throughout his career: sailing ships, fishing boats, Thames barges and working boats of all kinds. Many of his harbour scenes were on the east coast of Scotland, but he had a particular connection to Buckhaven in Fife.He was born in Aberdeen in 1859. He would become the eldest of eight children and, at some point in the 1860s, the family moved to Edinburgh. In his time training at the Royal Scottish Academy (RSA) Life Class from 1882 until 1886, he was awarded the Chalmer Prize and won the Maclaine Watters Medal in 1885. He began exhibiting at the Royal Scottish Academy in 1877, and in 1880, he exhibited two Buckhaven paintings. One of these was also among his first exhibits at the Glasgow Institute of the Fine Arts later that year.Joe Milne's attraction to Buckhaven may have involved his future wife Janet Thompson, whose family lived there. Her late father had been a fisherman in Buckhaven and she worked as a milliner. Janet and Joe married there in October 1884. Their first child was born in Buckhaven in August 1885, and he would grow up to be the artist John Maclauchlan Milne RSA.

Est: £2,000 - £3,000
JOSEPH MILNE (SCOTTISH 1857-1911) A BUSY HARBOUR SCENE Signed and dated '91, oil on canvas 30.5cm x 38cm (12in x 15in) Sailing ships and fishing boats in harbours were recurring themes throughout Joseph Milne’s career as a landscape artist from 1880 to 1911, particularly in the early 1890s. His maritime paintings depicted locations ranging from the River Thames and the River Tyne to Tayport, Perth and Leith; to Tarbert, Loch Fyne and the River Clyde on the west coast; and barges at Dordrecht in the 1880s. Many of his shipping pictures now have generic titles, with no particular location specified. When he painted this picture in 1891, he also produced another of sailing ships in Tayport Harbour.Joseph Milne first exhibited at the Royal Scottish Academy in 1877 at the age of 18, and at the Royal Glasgow Institute in 1880. He exhibited annually until 1902, before leaving Scotland in 1903. He exhibited seven pictures at the Royal Academy in London (1887 to 1908). His final Royal Glasgow Institute exhibit in 1902 was of Leith Harbour (no. 19a). Joseph was succeeded by his son, the artist John Maclauchlan Milne, R.S.A. (1885 – 1957).We are grateful to Maurice Millar, author of The Missing Colourist: The Search for John Maclauchlan Milne RSA (privately published in 2022 and available via The Missing Colourist website) for writing this text.
