A collection of work by one of Birmingham's most celebrated artists is set to go under the hammer at a Shropshire auction house beginning next month.A collection of 34 oil and watercolour paintings by William John Wainwright is expected to fetch around £8,000 when they are sold by Shrewsbury-based Halls Fine Art.
“Wainwright’s paintings evoke a romanticised past full of knights errant, courtly love and the age of chivalry. There is an escapism element to his work that I find appealing. Three paintings included in the fine art, antiques and jewellery auction in June 12 are ‘Lady Arranging Flowers’ valued at up to £300, ‘The Beadsman’, which was exhibited at The Royal Birmingham Society, valued at up to £400 and ‘A Troubadour’ valued at up to £400.
Returning to Britain, Wainwright lived in London for a time while looking for new painting grounds. Encouraged by fellow artists Walter Langley, Edwin Harris and Charles Napier Hemy, he settled on Newlyn.
