He was an influential art teacher & painter. His sea and landscape paintings made him a leading figure in the Impressionist movement in Britain but in time he turned to a more traditional English style, and spent more time painting in the countryside rather than on the coast. As a painting tutor at the Slade School of Art for many years he influenced generations of young artists. Exhibited at the R.A. had a major show at the Goupil Gallery in 1889, professor of painting at the Slade School c1893. He was recruited by Lord Beaverbrook to paint in the Great War and mostly naval and coastal scenes, this was probably done for this project. Sold as genuine NOT a copy or some mechanical print.

First editions of all thirteen volumes of Beardsley's celebrated art-nouveau quarterly with plates after works by Beardsley, Sargent, Sickert, Rothenstein and may others. With literary contributions from luminaries such as W. B. Yeats, H. G. Wells, Henry James, Anatole France, Kenneth Grahame, et al.The renowned journal was conceived in 1894 by Beardsley and the American novelist Henry Harland, who explained: "In one of the densest and soupiest and yellowest of all London's infernalest fox, Beardsley and I sat together the whole afternoon . we thought it quite a pity that London publishers should fee themselves under any obligation to refuse any of our good manuscripts . and then and there we decided to have a magazine of our own and the next day we had an appointment with John Lane."What they had in mind was a literary journal that would attract attention for its content, format, and unique artistic vision. Beardsley, who served as the art director for the quarterly until his dismissal in 1895, due to his association with Oscar Wilde, was responsible for the cover designs for the first five volumes and, more importantly, for setting an aesthetic tone that touched on morbidity, eroticism, perversity and irony, The Yellow Book carried on until 1897, giving rise to a variety of artists and writers whose collective spirit gave rise to a cultural spirit that transcended Victoriana.A magnificent set.
