Henry Pether (British, 1800-1880)
Est: £7,000 - £10,000
Henry Pether (British, 1800-1880) The Thames at Twickenham by moonlight, with the Rose & Crown and St Mary's Church beyond inscribed 'Pether' to the stretcher oil on canvas 61 x 91.5cm Provenance: Within the family of the present vendor for over 70 years Like his father Abraham and older brother Sebastian, Henry Pether became renowned for his moonlit scenes. However, in contrast to his relatives, who commonly composed imaginary capriccios, Henry Pether executed realistic studies of known locations in England, France and Italy. Twickenham was a favourite subject of the artist which he painted on a number of occasions. A similar composition to the present work, with slight differences, exists in the Orleans House Gallery, Twickenham, of which it has been written: "In Twickenham by Moonlight the English picturesque style has been combined with the romanticism of artists such as Caspar David Friedrich (1744–1840). The interplay of light and shade is here examined to full effect, creating a hermetic, contemplative mood. The landscape is dominated by the Thames, which reflects the subtle glow of the full moon above." (Mark De Novellis, Highlights of the Richmond Borough art collection, 2002, p. 61) The main 15th century medieval tower of St Mary's Church, depicted in the present work, still exists today. The church's original nave collapsed in 1713 and Sir Godfrey Kneller, then churchwarden, played an active role in its reconstruction. Kneller's remains were entombed within the church upon his death a decade later. It is likely that the right hand side of the composition depicts Eel Pie Island with Ham House beyond.
