Meaning & Analysis

Lowry visited this park, as well as the Salford Museum and Art Gallery seen to the right on various occasions when he attended the Salford School of Art from 1915. This was in the same building as the gallery, but the artist only visited it intermittently and found quite restrained and conservative after his experience with Impressionist teacher Adolphe Valette, who had a famously liberal approach to Fine Arts education. He was teaching at the Manchester School of Art, which Lowry also attended for some evening courses between 1905-15. T.G. Rosenthal presents a fitting analysis of Lowry’s painting in his book L.S. Lowry - The Art and the Artist, describing it in the following way:

“An almost pure landscape version of Peel Park [displaying] a substantial, unaccountable crowd taking up about forty per cent of the height of the painting and its entire width. It is however a work of considerable beauty and, as in the Necropolis painting of the same period, Lowry has almost as much Joy with the strange range of greens for the grass surface and the healthy trees in leaf as he does with the white.”

Born in 1887, L. S. Lowry was a key figure in 20th century British painting. Known for his distinctive painterly style and 'matchstick men', Lowry aimed to put industry on the map by typically focusing on scenes from his hometown in the North West of England. The naivety of his art drew criticism, yet has stood the test of time with the artist becoming a household name. Lowry has consistently performed in the secondary market, with works such as Going To The Match achieving a value of £2,919,000 in 2021 and the editioned prints remaining highly sought after.
