41 reviews

Charles Spencelayh, English, 1865 to 1958, oil painting on canvas, Musicians and Friends, depicting a double portrait of men, a guitar player, 1946. Signed and dated, lower left. Framed. A gold tone plate showing the name of the artist, on the front of the frame. Charles Spencelayh is known for Figure, genre and portrait painting-miniatures. Acclaimed by one critic as the modern Meissonier of British Domestic life, Charles Spencelayh was a painter of figure subjects, genre scenes and portraits. He has also been compared to William Powell Frith in his skilful evocation of sentiment and meticulous rendering of detail. He worked in many media achieving great acclaim as a miniaturist, watercolourist and etcher. One of a kind artwork.
