Pair of framed Watercolours, Dartmoor heather fields, signed C.A.James, early C20th
A pair of watercolours in pastel shades depicting two landscape scenes on Dartmoor with lakes and fields of heather. The artist C.A.James, whose signature appears at the bottom of each of these paintings, cannot be identified but was clearly an accomplished amateur painter. The bleak landscape of Dartmoor is sensitively pictured in two complementary scenes of fields of heather by a lake, the lighting suggesting dawn with birds flying at the break of day. The mountainous outcrop at the back can be identified as Brent Tor, a landmark of Dartmoor which is surmounted by the church of St Michael, which can be seen in both the images. It was probably a popular subject for painters and various other paintings with a similar subject can be found. The style suggests dating to the 1920s and this seems consistent with the frames which appear to be original.| Size: | 10 x 7,5 cm image and 28 x 19.5 cm with frame |
| Weight: | 960 grams for both |
| Date: | 1920s |
| Condition: | Good condition; the wood backing of the frame held in by old, probably original nails. If removed the framer's label can be seen. |
| Price: | £45 |
