About the Item
Belgium. A Morning in Bruges
by Leonard Machin Rowe (1880-1968)
signed front lower right corner, inscribed, dated and signed to the back
watercolour painting on artist's paper, unframed
sheet 9.75 x 13.75 inches
Charming painting by Leon. Rowe, inscribed to the back and dated June 1950. A busy town square scene with and figures busy about their day. A lady and her dog stroll in the foreground. A covered wagon can be seen leaving the square. Beautiful neutral colours enhance this scene from the traditional buildings.
To the back the artist has written "Morning sketch Bruges" and "June 50".
Belgium and Luxembourg were two of Rowe's favourite destinations for his painting trips overseas. Often incorporating figures into his work, his style is very similar to Thomas Morley's paintings of French and Belgian market town scenes.
Signed front lower right. Signed, dated and inscribed to the back. This work forms part of a watercolour collection we currently hold by Rowe.
Known as Leon Rowe, the artist was born in Staffordshire, England, in Christmas week of 1880. His career and business involved in him interior decoration, and the design and painting of theatre production stage scenery. He had a love of painting in watercolour for his own pleasure and the collection of work we currently hold by this artist shows exemplary skill. In his later years he was able to travel to Europe where much of his post war work was executed, although examples of his paintings are recorded as early as 1914, when he would have been around 25 years old. His earlier work shows his signature as Leon Rowe but the majority he signed as L M Rowe - as is the case here. He passed away in 1968.
condition report:
No tears or creases. Very clean throughout, even the sheet edges. The image has a slightly marked and toned area in the sky area, near the top central edge. Overall, clean and clear with good strong colour.

Being able to go to my studio five days weekly and paint for several hours, living in a supportive community, having family and friends who encourage me--all have contributed to helping me become an artist. Being fortunate to study with some of the artists I admire has kept me painting from the garden, people and my favorite things. With the support of galleries, teaching and doing demos, how could I do anything else? My goal is to try to be the best I can be by always being a student, looking for new ideas and stretching my horizons." Upon retirement from a 33-year teaching career, Lu rented a studio in Loveland and began concentrating on her oil and watercolor painting. Learning from artists she had followed and admired throughout the years her painting became a full time career. Since 1992, she has studied with renowned painters Richard Schmid, Clyde Aspevig, Joyce Pike, and others at the Scottsdale Art...Category
