Description
Arthur Delaney,
British 1927-1987-
Daisy Bank Mill;
oil on board, signed, 31x16.5cm (ARR)
Provenance: Private UK collection; thence by descent.
Note: Delaney was a 20th-century English artist who specialised in depictions of 1930s Manchester, his home town. His representations of everyday life in an industrial northern city are very clearly influenced by his contemporary L.S. Lowry. Delaney had no formal art training, and his paintings can be interpreted as drawing on his own experience of working in a textile mill from the age of 13 through to his retirement at 45. This work is therefore of great historical value, as a first-hand expression of the reality of life in inter-war urban Britain, an environment undergoing rapid, unprecedented transformations. These paintings depict recognisable landmarks of Manchester, including the Albert Memorial.
His artwork has proved extremely popular, having been the subject of a solo exhibition at the Tib Lane Gallery in Manchester in 1974, and exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1987.
