Robert Lenkiewicz

Robert Oscar Lenkiewicz was one of South West England's most celebrated artists of modern times. Perennially unfashionable in high art circles, his work was nevertheless popular with the public.

Born: December 31, 1941, London
Died: August 6, 2002
A new master?

A diverse collection of paintings and prints by some of the Westcountry's leading artists of the last century will be auctioned next week at a specialist sale.

Works by Robert Lenkiewicz, Beryl Cook and Brian Pollard are already attracting international interest and are expected to fetch thousands of pounds. Auctioneers say the modern, abstract and traditional styles of art that have come out of Plymouth and the South West have a wide appeal and are collected worldwide.

<P>Robert Lenkiewicz with his model Fiorella, painted in oil on canvas, carries a guide price of &#163;15,000-&#163;18,000 </P>

And I agree with you both, that lady's self portraits are excellent.

I also like very much the self portrait of William Henry Hunt in watercolor and of course, those of Salvator Rosa. Actually the latter were the only ones I had seen before.
