| 1269 | WALTER RICHARD SICKERT, RA, PRBA (1860-1942) ST. JACQUES FACADE, DIEPPE Signed, oil on board 23 x 18cm. Exhibited: Eastbourne, Towner Art Gallery, Sickert in Dieppe Provenance: R. Hippisley-Cox Esq (1857-1923), a surgeon; and thence by descent Literature: Wendy Baron, Sickert, (London, 1973), p.322 Baron acknowledges Sickert's fondness for this view in Dieppe by citing seven versions on canvas and a further seven on panel (or board), all datable to c.1899-1900 (further examples have since come to light). She notes that Sickert sought fresh interpretations of the theme by cropping the view in different ways, by varying the clusters of figures, by observing the facade under different effects of light and by altering his technique. "Thus," she observes, "no one version is a replica of, or even very close to, another picture." Baron suggests that the most completely realized view is the one in the Whitworth Art Gallery in Manchester but the many pencil drawings of the same facade are to be interpreted as finished works in their own right and not merely as preparatory studies. Sickert's fascination with the subject under different conditions was not dissimilar to Claude Monet's numerous views of Rouen cathedral of the early 1890's but Sickert's stay in Dieppe (from 1896-1905) allowed him to develop both Realist and Impressionistic approaches to his art. He had settled there following his bitter divorce from Ellen Cobden but also wished to escape the tedious portrait work that had dominated his subject matter in London. He had been familiar with the town since 1879 but his mother, Eleanor Henry, had been brought up there. Sickert adored Dieppe so much that the artist Jacques Emile Blanche called him "the Canaletto of Dieppe" but Spencer Gore lured him back to England in 1905 to settle in Mornington Crescent and establish the foundations of The Camden Town school. £8000-12000 |   | Nil |
