Lot Essay

The Fishing Trawler is influenced by Christopher Wood whom Eurich greatly admired. Eurich never forgot his meeting with him at his own first one-man show at the Goupil Gallery, London, in 1929, the year before Wood's tragic death. Wood advised him to paint what he loved and ignore fashion. Eurich took this to his heart and it always gave him the strength to feel sure of his own voice. This painting is probably not of a specific place but a mixture of several places with which he was familiar.

We are very grateful to Christine Clearkin for her assistance in preparing this catalogue entry and for Philippa Bambach for the catalogue note.
