About the Item
This rugged early 20th-century gouache by British artist John Falconar Slater (1857-1937) depicts rapid whitewater amid an upland scenery in Northumberland, England.
As the fierce froth of a tumbling river cascades over jagged rocks, the sound is near-audible. A day sketching in the mist-covered hills enlivened by a continuous 'whoosh'. This was Slater’s England - the breathtaking abundance of the rugged North East. He was a master of inclement weather, braving the elements to render a storm or a chilly day battered by wind.
In an interview from his Newcastle studio, John Falconar Slater proclaimed “I am weather and waterproof from head to foot. That way I can stand the roughest gale” and it was this determination that led to many of his finest works.
The view here is possibly somewhere in The Cheviots - a range of rolling hills, which straddle the Anglo-Scottish border. The River Coquet winds through them - at times, quiet and tranquil, at others, wild and uncompromising.
Signed mid-right and held within a gilt frame.
