Description
This is a reproduction of Henry Scott Tuke's The Blue Jacket of 1910. The model is certainly one of Tuke's coterie of boy models which he painted in and around Falmouth, Cornwall. This is one of Tuke's plein-air oil sketches in which he was most interested in portraying the play of dappled sunlight on human skin. Henry Scott Tuke was born in 1858 York from whence he moved when he was sixteen and entered the Slade School of Art. He traveled to Italy six years later and between 1881 and 1883 he lived in Paris where he studied under Jean-Paul Laurens and met John Singer Sargent. During this time he met Oscar Wilde and John Addington Symonds. He began his painting in Cornwall in 1883 and his fame gradually grew. In 1914 he was elected to the Royal Academy of Arts having established himself as an independent artist who could afford to work in France, Italy and the West Indies. Tuke died in Falmouth, Cornwall at the age of seventy.This painting is in a private collection.
