Barrow travelled widely and was best known for painting views from around the world, such as scenes from London, India, New York, and the Middle East. During his career he painted over 1,000 of these urban and rural views, capturing a sense of light and warm through his gentle use of brush strokes and traditional oil painting technique. Included in the auction is a beautiful countryside vista of Dorset and a view of Vineyards in Beaujolais, France.

Barrow’s love of London, a little closer to home, is evident in his series of shopfronts including Mayfair hatters Lock & Co and Berry Bros. & Rudd, their flagship store located just a minutes walk from Dreweatts’ head office in London. 

Barrow frequently exhibited his work at the Royal Academy, along with other galleries such as the Browse and Darby in London and the Majlis gallery in Dubai. He was also the President of the Chelsea Art Society for 23 years.
