The Return of the Reapers 1886 [Ask Us A Question] Title: The Return of the Reapers 1886 Artist: Henry Herbert La Thangue (1859-1929) Oil on canvas 46 7/8 ¡Á 27 3/8 IN.(1190 ¡Á 695 CM), Private collection Description: The catalogues of the last three exhibitions listed above state that ¡®The Return of the Reapers¡¯ is initialled and dated 1886 on the back. No such inscription could be found when the work was acquired by the Tate Gallery but there seems little reason to doubt that it was once there, perhaps on a label which later became detached. T03413 was presumably painted in Norfolk, where La Thangue went to live on his return from France in 1884. It was while in France, studying in Paris and painting in Brittany and the Rhone Valley with Stanhope Forbes and Harvard Thomas, that La Thangue adopted the ¡®square brush¡¯ technique used with striking effect in this picture. ¡®The Return of the Reapers¡¯ also shows La Thangue's characteristic device of placing figures against a high horizon, thereby flattening the picture space. In both this and his use of large square brushes, La Thangue (like other British artists of his generation) was following the example of the French painter Jules Bastien-Lepage. In his catalogue of the 1978 Oldham exhibition, Kenneth McConkey describes La Thangue's ¡®A Portrait¡¯ in the Towner Gallery, Eastbourne (exh. 1978, no.6, repr.) as probably a study of the female reaper in T03413. Although not otherwise connected with the latter, this small portrait does seem to be of the same person. McConkey also points out that ¡®The Return of the Reapers¡¯ was apparently not exhibited by La Thangue and that it was probably purchased directly from the artist by its first known owner, La Thangue's friend Herbert Mitchell, son of the Bradford textile manufacturer Abraham Mitchell. The Mitchells are portrayed in La Thangue's painting ¡®The Connoisseur¡¯ of 1887. Media: Genuine 100% Hand Painted Oil Paintings On Canvas. Quality: Museum Quality, Brilliant Oil Painting Creation!
