George L. Beetholme 1825-1909 Landscape Oil


This is a beautifully painted Victorian landscape oil on canvas by the artist George Law FrancisBeetholme, who has signed the painting in the lower left hand corner. The painting depicts a landscape view of a mountainous region with a swiftly flowing stream creating a small waterfall over some rocks. There is a valley to the left and the banks of the stream are quite rocky. Unfortunately, we are unaware of the location, which may have been on the back, but as the painting has been relined, we are unable to tell. From his usual subject matter, we think it likely that it is in either Wales or Scotland.
George Law Francis Beetholme was born in 1825 in Hampstead, London, the eldest son of a solicitor by the name of John Law Beetholme (1797-1866). He was one of five children, having two sisters and two brothers. One of his brothers John Law Beetholme (1839-1909) was also an artist but became a playwright George Law F. was an articled clerk in the Census of 1851 and followed his father and became a solicitor, but was also listed as both a solicitor and an artist in the 1861 Census, when he was living at 1 Millman Street, Holborn, with his wife Jane, nee Whinham (1834-1911), who he had married in 1856 and his son, confusingly also called George Law Francis Beetholme (1857-1887).
His son George Jr. was also listed as an artist at 18 Little James Street, along with his father as a solicitor in the street directory for 1882, however, by 1899, after George Jr. had died two years earlier, George Senior was living at 47 Huntingdon Street, Islington with his wife Jane and listed as a landscape artist.
George exhibited from 1847-1890 at the Royal Academy, the British Institution, Suffolk Steet (RBA) and elsewhere. His landscapes at the RA were mainly scenes in Scotland, but he was known for painting landscapes containing waterfalls in both Wales and Scotland. His son George Jr. who was a still life (fruit) and landscape painter exhibited 1878-1886 at Suffolk Street, prior to his untimely death.
He is listed in the Dictionary of British Artists (Collectors' Club) and The Dictionary of Victorian Painters by Christopher Wood. His auction results can be found at the usual sites and there are 40 listings for his oils and watercolours at artprice.com.
The painting is framed in a good 3" swept, ornate gilt frame. It will be supplied wired and ready to hang.
Image size: 29 1/2" x 19 1/2" - 75cm x 39.5cm
Frame size: 35 1/2" x 25 1/2" - 90.15cm x 64.75cm
Medium: Oils on canvas
Condition: Very good. The canvas has been relined in the relatively recent past and is now in clean condition, with no missing paint or visible damage. There is overall faint craquelure, but the paint is now stable due to the relining. There are no stretcher marks. The frame is in very good condition.
