EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolour print, titled "Lincoln, c1860-1906" captures the essence of a bygone era. Created by Scottish artist James Orrock in 1906, it showcases his remarkable talent and attention to detail. The painting is part of Orrock's extensive collection, which was acquired by Lord Leverhulme upon the artist's death. The scene depicted in this artwork takes us back to Lincolnshire in the late 19th century. A picturesque view unfolds before our eyes as we gaze at Brayford Pool, with its tranquil waters reflecting the majestic Lincoln Cathedral towering above. The medieval cathedral stands proudly amidst a cityscape adorned with charming rooftops and wooden structures. As we immerse ourselves in this enchanting landscape, we notice boats gently moored along the riverbank. They add a touch of life to an otherwise serene setting and remind us of the importance of water transport during that time period. Orrock's masterful use of color brings vibrancy to every element within this composition. From the lush greens surrounding the lake to the warm hues adorning buildings and boats alike, each stroke breathes life into this historical moment frozen on canvas. Today, thanks to Lord Leverhulme's acquisition and subsequent creation of Lady Lever Art Gallery at Port Sunlight, visitors can still marvel at Orrock's extraordinary collection. This particular piece serves as a testament not only to his artistic prowess but also to his ability to capture both beauty and history within a single frame.
