223 - JOHN HENDERSON (BRITISH 1764-1843)THE HARBOUR AND CUSTOMS HOUSE, WEYMOUTH, DORSETWatercolour over traces of pencil10.4 x 15.6cm (4 x 6in.)Provenance:Guy Peppiatt Fine Art, LondonThe collection of Russell WorbyHenderson was an amateur artist and early patron of Girtin and Turner who he met through Dr Thomas Monro (1759-1833) who was a neighbour on Adelphi Terrace, London. Girtin and Turner copied Henderson's original watercolours, many of Dover, in the mid 1790s. Two other Weymouth views by Henderson are known, one in the Fitzwilliam Museum and the smaller at the Yale Center for British Art (B1975.3.856). Greg Smith has suggested that these Weymouth views by Henderson may be the basis for a view of Weymouth Harbour by Girtin (see Greg Smith, Thomas Girtin - an online catalogue, no. TG0911).Please note that the online catalogue shows the correct artist's dates.
