I discovered Ginner's work within the past year or so. Although he was English, he was born in France (where his father was working) and his early artistic training took place there. He later was part of the Camden Town group, which tended to use these sorts of bright colors.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by.Stephen Pentzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14882220887712092005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5010170380967519230.post-78597922342542150772012-02-24T06:52:32.801-08:002012-02-24T06:52:32.801-08:00This painter, Charles Ginner, what lovely composit...This painter, Charles Ginner, what lovely composition, strikingly realistic, kind of a bridge between the fauves and Edward Hopper. My complete unfamiliarity with him has hopefully as much to do with his misfortune of being a British painter as it does my less than complete knowledge of 20th century art history. A great addition to the First Known When Lost collection!WAShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10403669322174979974noreply@blogger.com
