Great British Watercolors brought together eighty-eight outstanding works in the medium from the Paul Mellon Collection at the Center, including masterpieces by J. M. W. Turner, John Constable, William Blake, Paul Sandby, John Robert Cozens, Thomas Girtin, Thomas Gainsborough, and others. The exhibition was organized as part of the 2007 celebrations commemorating both the Center’s thirtieth anniversary and the centenary of the institution’s founder, Paul Mellon, one of the greatest cultural philanthropists of the twentieth century.
In a period of a little over fifteen years, beginning in the early 1960s, Mr. Mellon assembled one of the world’s greatest collections of British drawings and watercolors. As part of his extensive collecting of British art, he purchased several distinguished private collections of British watercolors, enriching and expanding them with astute purchases reflecting his own taste. In his memoirs he praised “the beauty and freshness of English drawings and watercolors, their immediacy and sureness of technique, their comprehensiveness of subject matter, their vital qualities, their Englishness.” — —
Great British Watercolors spanned more than a century of British artistic production, from the emergence of watercolor painting in the mid-eighteenth century to its flowering in the early nineteenth century. The exhibition highlighted the diversity of British watercolor painting, showing both landscapes and figurative works by some of the principal artists who worked in the medium. Paul Mellon’s collecting activity helped to revive the study of British watercolor. — —

Thomas Rowlandson was a regular visitor to France, and this watercolor of a postal coach departing from a country inn was no doubt inspired by one of his journeys. Despite his fascination with the French, Rowlandson appealed to the English taste for mocking their neighbors across the channel. In this drawing he plays on the stereotype of the French as miserably malnourished. The sign on the right promises good food supplied by “J. Maigre.” “Maigre” is French for “thin” and “soup maigre” was the notorious soup without meat. The two figures to the left who watch the coach rumble out of the yard do so with wry amusement. One of them, an artist, is surely Rowlandson himself; the other well-fed Englishman is probably his friend and traveling companion Henry Wigstead.
