If you’re going to ape any great artist of yore’s signature work, then choosing Raoul Dufy is as good a starting point as any. Something which hasn’t been lost on celebrated (and indeed, once infamous) Brit contemporary landscape artist, John Myatt, whose latest illustrative reveal seen here – and entitled, ‘ Regatta on the Thames’ – has been executed and visually presented as ‘in the style of’ Dufy.

Offered as an individually numbered and artist signed composition, this limited edition hand-embellished giclee painting concentrates on a typical River Thames-based regatta in the peak of summer, and continues a long-standing theme which served as a thread through a large part of Dufy’s back catalogue.

His scenes would often focus on the rich at play on the French Riviera at the turn of the last century, albeit with decadent yachts taking centre stage, rather than the seeming boat race theme envisaged by Myatt on this pictorial occasion.
