George Large was born at Islington, London in 1936 and went on to study art at Hornsey College of Art from 1958-63. Large is a member of the Royal Society of British Artists and in 1986 he was elected to the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours. Three years later he won the Winsor & Newton Award and his work is represented in several important public collections.
Human figures are important components in Large’s compositions, often men at work, and the work of Edward Burra and Stanley Spencer has been influential upon Large’s art. He has held several solo exhibitions and was commissioned to do a mural for Kings Cross Thameslink Station. In recent years he has lived and painted in Rutland and Malta.

About the work
About the Work
George Large was born at Islington, London in 1936 and went on to study art at Hornsey College of Art from 1958-63 where one of his fellow students was Allen Jones. The work of Edward Burra and Stanley Spencer has been influential upon Large’s art. Human figures are important components in Large’s compositions, often men at work, used as the artist says, because I distort the shapes and love great big muscles. It’s the solidness, it works better for distortion. As the art critic Anthony J.Lester has written, These monumental, sculpture-like, wilfully convoluted figures now consume his paintings. They have become the very hallmark of all his work.

What our customers say
Paul
Astonishing place. Driving home I realised it was probably the best experience I've ever had in a shop/gallery. I'll be filling my house with their artworks for years to come. A unique place.

Just received my Kang-hyo Lee teacup. In perfect condition. I’m so happy with it and I think the international service offered by Goldmark is superb. The staff are so kind and extremely efficient and professional.

Goldmark have the most astonishing range, from the very affordable to the upper echelons of the market. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable and really helpful. For anyone wanting to start a serious art collection within whatever budget this could be the best place to start.

There is no other gallery like Goldmark. I'm always amazed at both the stock they hold and their ability to regularly source really quite special pieces of art. That, with their friendly, knowledgeable & utterly unpretentious style makes them a delight to visit & to buy from.

Their delivery service is 100% reliable and the breadth of work displayed on their website pretty amazing. Above all, unlike other such dealers, I have never been under any pressure to buy. I recommend you give them a try.

We first visited Goldmark approximately 6 years ago and immediately liked the informality compared to previous gallery experiences. It’s a great place to start or build on your collection. Everyone at Goldmark is very friendly, knowledgeable and will give you as much or as little time as you wish.

We have bought prints and pots from Goldmark over many years and our house is the richer for the collections we have built up. The framing and delivery service are faultless.

Their exhibitions are always prepared with great care, with videos and catalogs accompanying the shows. I have not been able to visit the gallery in person but all the Goldmark team is splendid and highly professional, which makes the virtual shopping a great experience.
