Artist Biography
Percy Hague Jowett (1882–1955): A Pioneer of Modern British Landscape
Percy Hague Jowett (1882–1955) was a British artist and Royal College of Art principal who profoundly shaped the trajectory of modern British art. Born in Halifax, Yorkshire, on June 1st, 1882, he embarked upon an artistic journey marked by rigorous training at Leeds School of Art followed by a pivotal role as Headmaster of Chelsea Polytechnic and later Principal of the RCA—a position he held until 1947. His legacy extends beyond his institutional leadership; Jowett championed avant-garde movements like Impressionism and Surrealism, fostering connections with influential figures such as Henry Moore.- Early Life & Education: Jowett’s formative years were spent honing his artistic skills at Leeds School of Art (1902–1904), where he gained foundational knowledge in draughtsmanship and color theory. Subsequently, he pursued formal academic training at the Royal College of Art (RCA) in London (1907), earning his diploma with distinction and establishing himself as a respected figure within the burgeoning British art scene.
- War Service & Artistic Engagement: During World War I, Jowett served valiantly with the Royal Garrison Artillery, witnessing firsthand the horrors of trench warfare and contributing to the artistic documentation of the conflict through his involvement on the War Artists’ Advisory Committee. This experience undoubtedly fueled his commitment to portraying reality with unflinching honesty—a characteristic that would permeate much of his subsequent oeuvre.
- Teaching & Mentorship: Jowett's dedication to nurturing talent shone brightly as Headmaster of Chelsea Polytechnic and Principal of RCA, where he instilled in generations of students a passion for experimentation and innovation. Notably, he recognized Henry Moore’s potential early on, providing him with his inaugural teaching position—a connection that cemented Moore’s artistic development and solidified Jowett's role as a catalyst for British art history.
- Notable Works & Artistic Style: Jowett’s artistic output encompassed landscapes, figure studies, and genre scenes executed in the Impressionist style. His canvases are characterized by luminous color palettes, loose brushstrokes, and an emphasis on capturing fleeting moments of atmospheric beauty—techniques that align seamlessly with the aesthetic ideals of his era. Particularly noteworthy is ‘Cider Press Farm,’ painted in 1931, which exemplifies his masterful ability to convey rural tranquility and textural richness.
- Recognition & Legacy: Throughout his illustrious career, Jowett exhibited extensively at prestigious venues like the Royal Academy and the Beaux Arts Gallery, garnering critical acclaim for his artistic vision. He was elected a Fellow of the New English Art Club (NEA) in 1929 and Royal Society of Painters in Water Colours (RWS) in 1938—honors that acknowledged his contributions to British art culture. His involvement with the 7 & 5 Society underscored his belief in collaborative artistic endeavors and cemented his place as a champion of progressive artistic ideals.
