23 48 48 GEORGE COLLINGRIDGE (1847-1931) On the Pier oil on gumleaf signed with initials lower centre: G C 8 x 17.5cm $2,000–3,000 George Alphonse Collingridge de Tourcey (1847-1931), artist and historian, was born on 29 October 1847 at Goddington Manor, near Bicester, Oxfordshire, England, son of William Collingridge, and his wife Louisa, née Maguire. He rarely used ‘de Tourcey’. His parents moved to France in 1853 and he was educated at the Jesuit College, Vaugirard, and the Académie des Beaux-Arts, Paris, studying architecture under Viollet-le-Duc, wood-engraving and painting. Corot informally accepted him as a pupil, a very rare favour. On the advice of his brother Arthur (1853-1907), also an artist, who was already in Australia, Collingridge migrated in 1879 to join the Illustrated Sydney News, in which he published the first picture of Jenolan Caves (1881), from Arthur’s drawing; he also worked for the Australian Town and Country Journal and the Sydney Mail. He very quickly made his mark, gaining the first prize for xylography at the Sydney International Exhibition in 1879; his view of Bathurst in 1880 was thought to be the largest wood-engraving yet produced. Dissatisfaction with lay control of the existing New South Wales Academy of Art led the brothers to found the (Royal) Art Society of New South Wales in July 1880, and in 1888 they launched the short-lived Australian Art, the first such journal in the continent. The fashion for utopian communities given over to the artistic life was taken up in Australia in the late 1880s and early 1890s, at the Heidelberg School out from Melbourne and at Curlew Camp in Little Sirius Cove in Sydney. Established in the late 19th century, the Curlew artists’ camp, was first set up on the eastern shore of Little Sirius Cove on Sydney Harbour as a weekend retreat, by clothing manufacturer Reuben Brasch and his brothers. Fascinated by the natural beauty of the surroundings, several highly respected Australian artists including Arthur Streeton and Tom Roberts drew inspiration from here to create some of their most famous paintings.
