Scottish English art highlands watercolor painting 19th century

Fine Art : Drawings : Watercolor : English 19th Century

 

Watercolor on heavy paper, 11 3/4" by 20", unframed, unsigned on front but with an inscription on reverse, by a talented artist, quite likely listed if we knew who he was. Note the pencil inscription on reverse, which reads "Copy from Mr. Pidgeon/A.G.W. Scotland". This is a beautifully executed 19th century work, English, Scottish, or Irish in origin, that will look great when you frame and preserve it. Note the detail in the tree, and the covey of ptarmigan-like birds in the foreground. Condition is good overall with the exception of a 3/4" tear at extreme top edge, (where there is also a discolored area if you look closely); and some stubbed or missing extreme corners, along with overall even yellowing of the paper. I think the work RESEMBLES the work of Victorian listed artist RICHARD ANSDELL (1815-1885). SEE HUNDREDS OF OTHER WORKS NOW IN MY SHOP.
