The Spooner Collection of watercolours is one of the finest of its
kind, featuring all the leading artists of the period 1750 - 1850.
Notable among them are watercolours of the Lake District by John
White Abbott, and rural scenes by several artists - Gainsborough,
Turner, Cozens, Rowlandson, Francis Towne, Samuel Palmer.
Architecture dominates the setting, in works by Girtin, Cotman and
Sandby. The essays accompanying the catalogue discuss outdoor
painting and the role of memory in watercolour painting, the
connoisseurship, and attitudes towards watercolours; and give a
brief biography of William Wycliffe Spooner himself. This complete
catalogue of the collection, bequeathed by Spooner to the Courtauld
Institute, is published on the occasion of a touring exhibition of
select works from the collection, showing at The Worsworth Trust,
Grasmere; The Huntingdon Library, California; and the Courtauld
Institute Gallery, London, 2005 - 2006.
