EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the renowned English artist Henry John Sylvester Stannard (1870-1951) at work in the picturesque coastal town of Southwold, Suffolk, during the early 1910s. A member of the Royal Society of British Artists (RBA), Stannard is depicted here in his element, painting en plein air with a sunny sky and the tranquil East Anglian landscape as his inspiration. The artist wears a hat and a moustache, adding to the Edwardian charm of the scene. During this period, Stannard gave painting lessons to the young Harold Auerbach, who was holidaying in Southwold. This formative experience left a lasting impact on Auerbach's artistic career, as he went on to become a successful painter and printmaker in his own right. The image showcases Stannard's dedication to his craft, as he sets up his easel and tripod in the open air, ready to capture the fleeting beauty of the moment. The sunny day and the idyllic setting of Southwold add to the sense of serenity and creativity that pervades the scene. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the life of a working artist during the early 1900s and the enduring allure of the English countryside.
