An original 20th Century oil on canvas painting titled ‘At the Shore’ 1935.
Signed by Barclay Henry (1896-1946).
Barclay Henry – British Born, 1869-1946.
Barclay Henry was a painter of oil and watercolour, landscape, coastal scenery and of figurative works. He was born in 1869 at Dumbarton and at the tender age of 12 went to sea as a sea cadet serving on the HMS Worcester under Captain (latterly Admiral) J. Henderson Smith, his uncle. He is referenced on the Census of 1881 as such whilst at Kent.
Upon returning from sea, he was educated at Bonnington Park, Peeblesshire, then at Madras College, St. Andrews. He was associated for a time with the Craigmill School, Sterling as a budding artist, having been interested in painting since a very early age.
He moved to Arrochar in 1892 and lived in Fascadail. Barclay Henry originally intended to follow in his father's footsteps and trained as a doctor but unfortunately dropped out of university to nurse his mother.
Barclay Henry became an accomplished artist. Most of his work was done as commissions.
