Lowes Dalbiac Luard

1872-1944

Lighting a Bonfire

Ref: 1541

Oil on board, 35 by 25 cm (13 ¾ by 9 ¾ ins)

Luard’s fascination with movement also extended to the phenomena of fire. As well as a number of pochades of fires and bonfires are several fine prints including an extraordinary etching and aquatint, conveying with a striking sense of immediacy the swirling forms of a bonfire, whipped up by the wind and losing control (see cat.x.a (below)).
