Augustus Frederick Lafosse (Gus) Kenderdine (1870—1947) was a landscape and portrait artist of Lancashire and Saskatchewan, a farmer of Saskatchewan, and academic at the University of Saskatchewan. ==England== Kenderdine was born the third of six children to Richard and Annie Kenderdine on 31 March 1870 at Chorlton-upon-Medlock in Lancashire, and subsequently christened at the Manchester Cathedral on 23 April 1870. Kenderdine first studied art under his godfather, Chevalier de la Fosse, a Belgian-born painter and photographer, at the Manchester School of Art, now part of the Manchester Metropolitan University. Subsequently he was apprenticed to several local artists before establishing the business of "Gus Kenderdine: Photographer and Art Dealer" in 1890. From 1890 to 1891, Kenderdine studied with Jules Lefèbvre at the Académie Julian in Paris, and his work was subsequently displayed at the Paris Salon. On returning to England, Kenderdine joined the Blackpool Sketching Club, now known as the Blackpool Art Society, in 1891, and was a prolific exhibitor at their annual exhibitions and an occasional committee member. He displayed many oils and an occasional charcoal and chalk of landscapes around the Lake District, along the River Wyre and the local Lancastrian coastline and countryside. He also displayed a number of life, head and group studies, and in 1901 and 1902 several of his paintings were hung at the Royal Academy's Annual Summer Exhibition. In 1894 Kenderdine married Jane Ormerod at Garstang, where he had been painting, and they subsequently had four children. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Augustus Kenderdine」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
