Original 20thC Watercolour of Devon Estuary with Fishing Boats by E W Haslehust (Brit. 1866-1949)

Ernest William Haslehust, a watercolourist, principally of landscapes, was born in Walthamstow and studied at the Slade School of Fine Art under Alphonse Legros, exhibited at the Royal Academy, the Royal Society of British Artists, the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours, the Royal West of England Academy and had several one-man shows in London. He was a prolific painter of British landscapes which were extensively reproduced and is perhaps best remembered for illustrating 36 volumes of the well-known 'Beautiful Britain' series of travel books published by Blackie & Son. He also designed posters for the LNER & LMS railway companies. His work is in the collections of a number of provincial British galleries, including Bristol, Sheffield, Oldham & Newport, as well as in galleries in Canada, New Zealand and Sri Lanka. For some time he was President of the Midland Sketch Club. He lived in London.Based upon another work by the same hand, I can now identify the scene with a degree of confidence as being at Newton Ferrers in Devon and it presumably dates from the first half of the 20th Century.Frame Dimensions 47.25cm x 53.75cm (18.5" x 21.25") & Depth 5cm (2")
