Wilson Irvine, 1869 - 1936
This piece was found in storage at the academy - though I’d call it one of the better pieces in our collection. It has a strong sense of place and time - as well as an intriguing pattern.
It has a horizontal flow - as well as a flatness - that recalls traditional Chinese landscape painting. None of his other works online are like it.

This is the kind of dry, factual, precise study that was required by students of the French academy in the 19th and 18th centuries. Even Cezanne did them as a student and so did Matisse.
As images in their own right, however, they sure feel cold, clinical, joyless, awkward, and boring,
