Edward Lewis (1936-2018) - Framed 20th Century Oil, Boiled Egg & Runner Beans
Description:
Edward Lewis (1936-2018), British School, oil on canvas. Still of a Boiled Egg and Runner Beans. Signed with initials to the lower right and dated '73. Well presented in a complementing off-white frame. Titled, signed and dated verso. The overall condition of the artwork is very good, with a small scratch mark to the lower edge of the composition (near centre) and light scuffs and dirtying to the painted wooden frame.
Collection Information:
This colourful collection of works in oil by the Bath-based artist Edward Lewis (1926-2018) includes figurative studies, still life, and abstract works, in his typically expressive and vibrant style.
Biography:
Edward Lewis (1936-2018) was born in Wales and, after completing a period of National Service, studied at Cambridge in the 1950s. He was encouraged to pursue his passion for art by a maternal relative, Myfanwy Evans (1911-1997), art critic and opera librettist. Myfanwy married John Piper (1903-1992), and it was John who would show Lewis' work to William Coldstream, the principal of the Slade School of Art, where he then studied in 1960. Lewis took a teacher training job in the Rhondda, Wales, in the late 1960s, where a rustic sense of naturalism began to enter his work, inspired by the change in his surroundings. He retired to Bath in the 1990s, where he continued to work and exhibit. He was often inspired by his daily activities, and believed abstraction to be 'about process rather than design'. A retrospective exhibition was held at the Bath Artists’ Studios in August 2018.
