        James Webb, British 1825-1895 On the Ganges; oil on canva

        Est: £6,000 - £8,000

        James Webb, British 1825-1895 On the Ganges; oil on canvas, signed, inscribed and dated 'On the Ganges James Webb. 72-4' (lower right), 61 x 91.5 cm. Provenance: H. Fitzpatrick.; Anon. sale, Christie's, London, 4 February 1972, lot 151.; where purchased by the uncle of the present owner. Note: Among the many paintings by James Webb in public collections across Britain, most are of European views but there are a few beautiful examples of the artist's work painted further afield. In the present work, Webb has created a palpable sense of warmth through his adoption of golden tones, set against the cooler blue hues in both the sky and water, whilst his thick application of paint, particularly on the white domes of the city, convincingly evokes the glittering reflection of the sun's light.

        JAMES WEBB (circa 1825 London 1895) View of Paris. 1875. Oil on canvas. Signed and dated lower right: J. Webb 75. 46 × 61 cm. Provenance: - With St. Anna-Galerie, Zurich, until 1955. - Collection of Georges Gangloff, Basel, acquired from the above gallery. - Swiss private collection. We are grateful to Richard Green for confirming the authorship on the basis of a photograph. --------------- JAMES WEBB (um 1825 London 1895) Ansicht von Paris. 1875. Öl auf Leinwand. Unten rechts signiert und datiert: J. Webb 75. 46 × 61 cm. Provenienz: - St. Anna-Galerie, Zürich, bis 1955. - Sammlung Georges Gangloff, Basel, bei obiger Galerie erworben. - Schweizer Privatbesitz. Die vorliegende Ansicht zeigt die Seine mit Blick nach Osten auf die Westfassade von Notre Dame. Der Louvre erhebt sich hoch auf der linken Seite und die Kuppel des Institut de France unterbricht die Reihe der Gebäude auf der rechten Seite. Die Tageszeit ist wahrscheinlich früh am Morgen. James Webbs Interesse an Paris in der Mitte der 1870er-Jahre lässt sich durch zwei vergleichbare Ansichten in britischen Sammlungen belegen, eine im Museum Sheffield (Inv.-Nr. VIS.1469), die andere im Wednesbury Museum and Art Gallery (Inv.-Nr. 1891.45, P.4). Richard Green bestätigt die Eigenhändigkeit anhand einer Fotografie, wofür wir ihm danken. ---------------
