Anna Hornby Art

British, 1914-1996

Anna Hornby studied art in Florence with landscape and flower painter Aubrey Waterfield in 1934, and later that year, enrolled at the Byam Shaw School of Art in London, where she studied under Francis Ernest Jackson, graduating in 1940. Calligraphy was Hornby's other great passion, and through her interest in calligraphy and her association with the Society for Italic Handwriting, she became acquainted with Alfred John Fairbank, whose portrait she painted (exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1961). Hornby was also a member of the Art Workers’ Guild and was elected member of the New English Art Club in 1971. She exhibited widely with no fewer than 13 pictures at the Royal Academy. Additionally, she exhibited at the Royal Society of Painters in Water Colours, The Royal Society of Portrait Painters and the Royal Society of British Artists.

"Stone Wall, Autumn, " George Smillie, Tonalist Fall Landscape View
By George Henry Smillie
Located in New York, NY
George Henry Smillie (1840 - 1921) Stone Wall, Autumn, 1879 Oil on canvas 9 1/2 x 15 inches Signed and dated lower right Provenance: Skinner, Boston, September 19, 2014, Lot 389 The career of George Smillie (1840-1921) followed the arc of nineteenth-century U.S. landscape painting. Trained in the Hudson River School tradition, Smillie successfully adapted to changing U.S. tastes and growing interest in European trends. In the late 1800s, he moved to tonalist paintings full of brushwork and influenced by French Barbizon painting. By the end of his career, he had lightened his palette to produce works similar to those of the U.S. impressionists. Yet in all styles, he was never less than competent, and his tonalist work is among the best produced in the United States. Like many nineteenth-century painters, George Smillie’s artistic training began with the study of printing. His father, James Smillie...
