Maurice Canning Wilks RUA, ARHA (1911-1984),

To Mass Maurice C. Wilks, R.U.O., Cushendun, Co. Antrim”,
20in x 24 3/4in (50.8cm x 62.9cm) £2000-3000.6800
Note on the artist: Maurice Canning Wilks, landscape and
portrait painter, was born in Belfast in 1910. He was an early
exhibitor at the Ulster Academy of Arts where he was elected an
associate member in 1935. The majority of Wilks' paintings are
landscapes that were mostly painted in Ulster such as this
painting of the Dun River in Co. Antrim. He was also inspired by
the landscape of Donegal, Kerry and Connemara. During his career
he exhibited thirty-seven works at the Royal Hibernian Academy in
Dublin, the majority of which were landscapes, although he
occasionally showed portraits. His work is characterised by loose
fluid brushstrokes that perfectly capture the rugged rural
landscape, described by one critic as having a "fine
romantic spirit and considerable feeling". In addition to
exhibiting his paintings in Ireland, he also had solo exhibitions
in Montreal and Boston during the 1960's. A retrospective
exhibition of his work was held in 1981 at the Malone Gallery in
Belfast. Maurice Canning Wilks died in early 1984 and later that
year a major retrospective was held at the Oriel Gallery in
Dublin
Exhibited: ‘The Fine Art Galleries’, Eaton’s of
Canada, where the work was purchased by the present owner for $750.

and the Royal British Art School. He later lived in Canada for
six years where works were exhibited at the major galleries in
Toronto, Montreal and Winnipeg. He won a purchase award at the
Hamilton Art Gallery in 1957 and was invited to exhibit at the 20th
Biennial International Watercolour Exhibition at Brooklyn Art
Museum in New York. He returned to Britain in 1959 and has
exhibited in Belfast and Dublin. His works are owned by many
public galleries in Britain, Canada and America. This work was
purchased from The Gallery, Co. Donegal in Ireland by the present
owner in 1984 and is accompanied with a copy of the receipt.
