Original 19th Century and 20th Century British and European Paintings and other Fine Art in Oils, Watercolors, Etchings, Pen and Ink, Mixed

John Lennon would have been 80 years old today. I thought it the ideal time to show this original "Beatles Tree" painting that we have by John's best friend and original Beatle Stuart Sutcliffe. John Lennon and Stuart Sutcliffe were inseparable at the time that The Beatles Tree artwork was created, and maybe, as this was an exam piece, Stuart chose to “hide” the caricature images of John and himself within the artwork? Possibly as his way of showing off his skills to John. There is also a small caricature of Paul McCartney's face and John's Rickenbacker 325 Capri guitar in the painting. Can you find them? As far as we are aware this is the only picture that Stuart Sutcliffe did of John Lennon and Paul McCartney. Medium - Watercolour and Ink on Paper Size - 4½" x 7" (12cm x 18cm) The painting is an original ink and watercolour artwork removed from Stuart Sutcliffe's Liverpool Art School examination notebook from 1960. The artwork was the property of the Sutcliffe Estate and sold at Sothebys, London in September 1999. The artwork is included in the “Stuart” limited edition book that is also available to purchase from ourselves. Condition: Excellent. There is a small tear near the top of the artwork likely to have been caused by Stuart himself as he pressed his pen firmly against the paper. This does not detract at all from the artwork rather it adds to the story. www.oakhamfineart.com DM or email for further details: @oakhamfineart [email protected] #stuartsutcliffe #art #originalpaintings #britishart #johnlennon #artgallery #19thcentury #thebeatles #oakhamfineart #artist #drawing #artwork #painting #illustration #sketch #design #photooftheday #draw #collectart #picoftheday #style #contemporaryart #happybirthdayjohn #artforsale (at Liverpool, England, UK) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGItFojnx2f/?igshid=8t1hw7uksi1
