OVERVIEW

This home page gives a brief preview of the sites we have posted about my late father, Joseph Appleyard.

Joe, a prolific artist from the mid 1930's until his untimely death in 1960, kept extensive records which along with examples provided by many of our visitors and with those found on Auction House Sites we are well on our way to showcasing 400 examples of Joe's work.

These sites contain photographs, published works, sketches, drawings, book illustrations and newspaper articles. Our ongoing research we hope will provide continued pleasure to those of you who choose to explore further and eventually enable a major exhibition of Joe's work to be staged.

2006 saw Joe's work brought to a wider audience with the publication of a short Biography in the "DOWN YOUR WAY" Magazine, a monthly nostalgic look at Yorkshire.

2011 has seen us make a major push to incorporate some 1,500 pages of Joe's Sketch Books which are in collection at Leeds Art Gallery, many of which have direct relevance to the images showcased in Joe's Art Galleries.

Joseph Appleyard's Art Gallery Sites
NOVEMBER 2010 SAW US REACH A MAJOR MILESTONE WHEN WE POSTED IMAGE No. 350

Much of Joe's work was published in "Holly Leaves", the Christmas edition of "Sport and Country", "The Dalesman Magazine", or reproduced as prints or greetings cards, all of which can be viewed in Art Galleries 1 and 2.

Joe's paintings are far flung. One of his earliest paintings, that of Adel Church, Leeds, known to be in South Africa in the early nineties, has been rediscovered in his home county of Yorkshire and only fifteen miles from Adel.

"Riding through the Ridings"

This site contains Joe's full transcript and most of the illustrations for his unpublished book "Riding through the Ridings", a Coach Journey from Doncaster to Darlington along the Great North Road, which was to have been published in 1947.
Quite why it never got published is unclear - possibly the pressure of family life?

Other Joseph Appleyard Sites

These sites give a more detailed insight into Joe's life through his manuscripts, newspaper articles, personal recollections and hopefully other sources yet to be discovered. Since these sites were posted in April 2002, we have managed to obtain information and illustrations from quite a number of sources and are constantly on the lookout for more work through the Net, Private Collectors, Auction Houses and both Private and Public Art Galleries.
