Frame treated solid wood 870 x 615 mm. In near fine condition. Provenance The Fine Art Society 148 Bond Street London "Raymond Booth A Memorial Exhibition 1929-2015" 12th August to 9th September 2016 catalogue number 57 with price of £4800. An extraordinarily fine oil study. RAYMOND BOOTH 1929-2015 Generally recognised as one of the greatest botanical artists of the twentieth century was also a naturalist and accomplished gardener. His passion for the natural world shines through in his highly detailed oil studies of flora and fauna. Booth developed a more or less unique painting technique. Firstly rather than using traditional watercolour he used oil paints. Secondly he generally used paper as this allowed an exactitude that even fine canvas would not. The resultant paintings were highly luminous with an intensity of colour that watercolour could never achieve at the same time there was no sacrifice of detail or precision. Raymond Booth 'studio sale' subtitled An Artist Immersed in Nature took place at Tennants Auctioneers Leyburn Yorkshire on Saturday 7 October 2023. All of the 90 paintings offered were sold. Lots 41 "A Branch of Apples" and 45 "A Shelf of Plants" were the best performing and sold for £9500 £1223.60 and £8500 £10 948.00 respectively. He was equally a remarkable plantsman. unknown
