I need help finding an online gallery of the paintings by William Hodges.
I'm just trying to verify that our painting is a true original by Hodges, the english painter from the late 1700's. Can someone please guide me to a site that displays all of his work or am I asking for too much. It is mostly of a flowery,bushy landscape with a girl in a long light blue dress holding a flower basket as she looks out over the landscape. any help will be appreciated. Thanks! |

I have a piece with a woman and a little girl in a field signed by W. Hodges. I don't think it's the work of the man from the 1700's but I am finding more people with the same type of paintings in different locations. I'm about 20 minutes north of Boston, Ma. Please give location and maybe we all can help each other out. Nice painting by the way.

I bought 2 small paintings signed W. Hodges. One has a golf scene and the other a meadow- both with bright colors and flowers in the foreground. I bought them in Georgia after a shop went out of business. I want to find out who the painter is and some of their history if possible.

I've also purchased a W. Hodges oil --- it's 35 by 23 inches and is a scene of a woman (wearing long dress and hat) next to a red roofed small cottage, looking over a pond with tons of flowers etc.. lots of blue sky with clouds and tall green grass. Wish I knew something of this artist, but can't seem to bring anything up. Have you learned anything?

I have recently purchased a painting 20 X 24 of a clown sitting in repose (side profile) that is very interesting. I also would like to know something about the artist. This is not a painting of flowers or nature at all. Does anyone have any information? I am quite sure it is not an old painting done in the 1700's.

I believe that w. hodges is a generic name for artists that mass produce these paintings. I just saw a w. hodges in a thrift store that looked similar to the style of these others and had my husband look it up. He found something that clued me in that this might be who "w. hodges" is

I'm not an expert in art, but I have more and more flair and knowledge with the time.
I also think that William Hodges was a generic name for mass-produced work of art. A lot of these ''period/style'' painting were mass produced and if someone has a good link to learn more about how these were done, let me know... Lastly, since we can see from the replies on this forum, that these painting are widespread over the US; and considering that no museum/institution has information on the painter, the explanation could be the ''mass production painting'' Anyway, theres a link with some information on a william Hodges, but style just dont fit http://www.nmm.ac.uk/upload/package/30/home.php |
