Art Painting by Arthur J. Meadows, " Venetian Glory"

Description
Arthur J. Meadows (1843-1907)
British
return

Born within a family of painters, Arthur Joseph Meadows may rightly be considered the leading member of this prodigious and prolific group. His father James Meadows, Sr. instilled in him a technical appreciation for accurate coastal views of Europe, and young Arthur set out to see and paint as many as he could find.

Traveling extensively throughout England, Holland and France, Meadows also took to the Mediterranean Ocean and the various sights and locales of Italy, Greece and the islands. He excelled in capturing local color and detail all within a soft, subtle palette that offers peaceful realism and emotional content to his artworks.

Meadows was very successful financially with his art in his lifetime and gifted works to many private individuals and other artists that he befriended. His upper society lifestyle enabled him to be quite active in early humanitarian efforts, and he was involved in the British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society in the mid-Victorian Age.  footnote:information on artist located www.;vallejogallery.com/pics.php

Arthur Joseph Meadows was from a family of artists and his work regularly appears for sale. Your painting would have some value depending on condition and size though this is probably not a good time to sell as the market is poor currently.
