Paul Marny 1829-1914 Watercolour Rocky Coast


We are delighted to offer for sale this atmospheric watercolour by the artist Paul Marny, who has signed the painting P. Marny in the lower left hand corner. The painting depicts of rocky coastal scene, with the waves crashing against the cliffs. There are several sailing vessels out to sea, heeling against the wind. It is quite probably that the location is near Scarborough.
PAUL MARNY was born in Paris and worked there for some years, possibly as a painter and decorator for Sevres, before moving to Belfast to join a French architect. He was persuaded to move to Scarborough in 1860 by Oliver Sarony, the photographic pioneer. He visited France from time to time, but remained living in Scarborough. Although not making much money at first, his work came to the attention of a local art dealer John Linn in 1878, who made an arrangement to take all of his paintings, in return for a stipend of £5 per week.
He painted many scenes of France and the Continent, largely from memory and local scenes in Yorkshire, always in watercolour. He died in Scarborough on 24th October 1914.
Biographical details for this artist may be found in The Dictionary of British Artists, The Dictionary of Victorian Painters by Christopher Wood, Mallalieu's Dictionary of British Watercolour Artists, and Grant Waters' Dictionary of British Artists.
Paul Marny with a very prolific artist and auction results achieved for his work may be found at artprice (462 listings) and at findartinfo (213), artnet (153) and arcadja (120).
The painting is newly double mounted in two tone acid free mount board and is framed in a 5/8" gilt frame with black line. It will be supplied wired and ready to hang.
