Description: | Joseph Crawhall was brought up in Newcastle. He later became one of the group of artists known as the Glasgow Boys. Like the other artists in this group, Crawhall was influenced by the flat patterning of Japanese art. The thin washes of paint in this picture sink into the fabric on which it is painted, softening the colours and flattening the forms. Streaks of turquoise scattered over the surface add to the decorative qualities of the image. Birds and animals were Crawhall's main subjects. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | art movement artists animals watercolours art North East artists people natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
