LIST 563
October 2025
5.30pm Tuesday 7th October
Hercules Brabazon BRABAZON (1821 – 1906)
Hercules Brabazon Brabazon (1821–1906) was educated at Harrow and Trinity College, Cambridge, then trained as a barrister. Financial independence, however, meant he could abandon the Law in favour of art. He spent much of his life travelling in Europe and North Africa, making quick, impressionistic drawings and watercolours. He painted privately for decades and it was only in his 70s – encouraged by his friend John Singer Sargent – that he began to exhibit.
Brabazon’s God, was Turner, and it was from his work he developed an obsession with capturing atmospheric conditions and fleeting effects of light and colour. This small group of fine examples of Brabazons work is representative of his range, and his interests.

PAST MATTERS
The Society of Antiquaries, London
We are thrilled to annouce that this Autumn we will be collaborating with the Society of Antiquaries. Having successfully secured a 999 lease on their premises at Burlington House, the Society is now raising funds to help plan the development of their building so that it can adequately serve them and the public in future.
We will be selling a selection of their historical prints at the gallery and hosting an EXCLUSIVE evening at the Antiquaries to view some of their remarkable and rarely seen treasures!
HOW ‘THE LIST’ WORKS
Our Lists introduce 100 works to our large stock of oil paintings, watercolours, drawings and prints each month. They are usually published in two halves, in the first and third weeks of the month.
Most works can be bought online via our ecomm platform, but using this is not mandatory! If you would like to enquire about a work, please email or send a message using the ‘Enquire’ button that appears when you click on an item. We try and treat enquiries about List pictures in strict order of receipt. Given the numerous methods of communications people tend to use nowadays, there will inevitably be times when technological overlaps muddy the system. But we try to be fair!
Please do call if you would prefer to talk to us about anything you see on the website, but we strongly advise sending an email first; we are happy to hold works for a short time while they are being considered, or to give time for you to make a vist.
