George DIXON (1731 - 1785)
A Basket of Flowers.
Pen, ink, watercolour and gouache. Signed and dated, 1762.
14.5x20.5 inches. Framed: 21x26.5 inches.

Currently on display as part of 'Tracing Time', @troiscrayons annual exhibition held at No. 9 Cork Street.

George Dixon was a true enlightenment character. According to family history he was a chemist, mathematician, engraver, china-painter, engineer, geologist and coal mine operator. He even destroyed his own house during a gas experiment. His elder brother was the Jeremiah Dixon who helped survey the Mason-Dixon line in the United States. This beautiful and dramatic still life demonstrates his ability as a draughtsman and supports the notion that he spent some time as a china-painter.
