THE HORSE DOCTOR ETCHING
BY JOSEPH WEBBJoseph Webb's (1908 – 1962) "The Horse Doctor" recalls a Dutch genre etchings by Rembrandt and his contemporaries, Adriaen and Isack van Ostade, and Cornelius Bega. Webb admired the narrative aspect of their informal scenes of local peasantry, and possibly was mindful here of Rembrandt's etching The Ratkiller (1632), in which an itinerant worker sells his services from door to door. In "The Horse Doctor" owes much stylistically to Rembrandt's swiftly executed genre subjects.
Joseph Webb was a British printmaker, painter and teacher of etching and sculpture. Today his etchings are among the most sought-after of his generation. They are found in major museum collections worldwide. Major institutions have acquired his work, including, in Britain, the British Museum and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, and Aberystwyth School of Art Gallery and Museum, and in the United States in Boston, San Francisco and Los Angeles. “La Revue Moderne” wrote of Joseph Webb’s work: “A curious dualism in this artist shows first the poet, sensitive to scenes of nature, of romantic landscapes, then the seeker in the mystic, in love with everything relating to the intercourse of being with the unknown forces of the world."
