297 paintings to find & counting !
During lockdown we’ve discovered titles of 297 paintings that are still “missing” to us as a family. We’d be so grateful for details of any works for the back catalogue we’re planning. Measurements, photos & the medium of a work is the information we’d love to have from current owners.
The photo below, from a newspaper article, shows John in his studio in Lemington in the 1960s. On the easel is a painting called “The Ninth of June, 1962” & this photo is the only visual record we have of it. It shows crowds on Scotswood Bridge celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Blaydon Races. It’d be wonderful to track down this painting before the 160th anniversary in 2022.
Please email info@johnpeacepaintings.co.uk if you can help in any way - we’d love to hear from you !
