Description:
Nottinghamshire landscape artist Arthur Lowe in his studio at Hollow House Farm.
Although born in Nottingham Arthur Lowe (1865-1940) spent most of his life in Kinoulton in the Vale of Belvoir. Trained initially at the Nottingham School of Art, he later attended the Slade and St John's Wood Schools before returning to his native Nottinghamshire. He was a member of the Nottingham Society of Artists and exhibited twice at the Royal Academy (in 1900 and 1916), five times at the Royal Society of Artists, Birmingham, four times at the Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool, twice at the Royal Cambrian Academy, and no less than 99 times at Nottingham Museum and Art Gallery. Four years before his death he staged his first one-man London exhibition (featuring over 200 of his works) at the New Burlington Galleries in Old Bond Street.
