Painter
in watercolour of cottages, landscapes and some Venice
scenes. He was the cousin of Walter
Tyndale (1855 – 1943), the well known
watercolour painter and illustrator.
Thomas Tyndale lived in Acton, West London and was a regular exhibitor
with the Dudley Gallery Art Society at the Egyptian Hall in Piccadilly. He also exhibited in the provinces, including
at least nine works at the Royal West of England Academy (1903 – 1908). The subjects were mostly Surrey and Sussex
cottage scenes – “Cottage near Haslemere, Surrey”
(1902) and “Near Horsham” (1907) are typical titles. Thomas Tyndale also worked as an illustrator
and painted 20 watercolours as illustrations for the book “Worcestershire”
published by A & C Black in 1909.
Most of his watercolours were cottages and rural landscapes, but he also
painted abroad in Bruges and Venice.
Thomas Tyndale later moved to Worthing and died there at the age of 78
on 15th December 1936. The
quality of the work and the popularity of the subject matter has made the
cottage scenes, in particular, increasingly sought
after by collectors.
