EDITORS COMMENTS
by Robert Arthur Wilson: A Post-WW1 Exploration of the Fascinating World of Colour (1919) In the aftermath of the First World War, as the world began to pick up the pieces and rebuild, artists and intellectuals sought solace and inspiration in the beauty and wonder of the natural world. One such artist was Robert Arthur Wilson, who in 1919 created the captivating work "Colour Wheel". This stunning oil painting, now held in the esteemed collection of Liss Fine Art / Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a mesmerizing exploration of the meaning, logic, mystery, symbolism, and power of colour. Wilson, a British artist of the 1910s, was deeply intrigued by the vibrant hues of the colour spectrum, as represented by the iconic rainbow. In May 1920, he gave a thought-provoking BBC radio broadcast on the subject, delving into the emotional and intellectual depths of the various colours and their significance. The "Colour Wheel" painting serves as a visual representation of his exploration. The circular palette features bold strokes of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet, arranged in a harmonious sequence that mirrors the natural progression of colours in a rainbow. The interplay of light and shadow, as well as the subtle gradations between hues, adds a sense of depth and dimension to the work. "Colour Wheel" stands as a testament to Wilson's mastery of oil painting and his profound appreciation for the enchanting world of colour. This evocative piece not only reflects the artistic trends of the post-WW1 era but also offers a timeless meditation on the beauty and meaning of the colour spectrum.
