    § † ROBERT SAWYERS (BRITISH 1923-2002) HAT STALL, MONTEGO BAY, CUBA Signed with initials lower left, signed and inscribed with title verso, oil on board (64cm x 88cm (25.25in x 34.5in)) Provenance: Rendezvous Gallery, Aberdeen Note: Robert Sawyers was a British artist best known for witty and creative compositions. He had the ability to transform memories into experiences on canvas and captured the beauty of everyday objects. Sawyers was said to be selective in what he chose to paint, focusing on personal enjoyment rather than societal expectations and commercial success. Born in Peckham, South London, he attended Beckenham School of Art before enrolling in the Royal College of Art in 1942. Following his education, Sawyers was awarded the Herbert Baker Travel Scholarship, which allowed him to travel to Florence, Italy. This was simply the beginning of a long career of traveling and painting; he travelled widely, often teaching and exhibiting in the exotic locations. He began formally teaching in 1947 at Leeds College of Art and later taught at Middleborough College of Art. Aside from international exhibitions across Europe and Central America, Sawyers also exhibited closer to home, showing at the Royal Academy of Arts, London, including the RA Summer Shows, the New English Art Club, and the Blue Rider Gallery in Mere.

Provenance: The Estate of the ArtistBorn in Peckham, London, Robert Sawyers knew from a young age that he aspired to be an artist. He was accepted age 16 to the Beckenham School of Art, going on to study at the Royal College of Art from 1942. He later taught at Leeds College of Art and Middlesborough College of Art, going on to travel extensively – including to Jamaica and Cuba – and to teach in these exotic locations too. Artistically, he trod his own path, only accepting commissions for subjects he personally wanted to paint, focussing primarily on his own artistic fulfilment more than any commercial success. He exhibited at, amongst others, the Royal Academy of Arts, London and the New English Art Club. His witty and inventive compositions demonstrate a uniquely humorous artistic talent.
