William Hoggatt, 1880-1961, was a landscape painter in watercolours, pastels and oils and in 1907 he settled on the Isle of Man and lived in Port Erin for many years. Three of his watercolours from this period appeared in the auction rooms at Wotton Under Edge this month. | |
|
The first showed a harbour at Castle Town with the town in the distance. Dated 1907 and signed by Hoggatt, it sold for £2,600. The two following pictures, which showed another busy harbour scene and also a garden scene again signed and dated 1907, sold at £2,400. Both lots were purchased by the same buyer and are likely to return to the island. |
