Daniel Sherrin
Mountain landscape with watering cattle

early 20th century

About the Item

Crisply detailed mountain landscape with watering cattle, this early 20th century oil painting is by renowned landscape artist Daniel Sherrin (1868-1940). Sherrin's work is distinctive for his short brush strokes and trees reflected in water in an impressionistic style. Mountain Landscape with Watering Cattle is done in oil paint on canvas, in a likely original decorative frame. Sherrin is an British artist known for painting landscapes with mountains touched by light. In this painting the majestic mountain ridge rises the trees. The sky is lit with sunny yellow tones, then blue and cloud, with cloudy mist by the water beneath the mountain peaks. In the foreground cattle are in the water, with the impressionistic reflections of autumnal trees behind them. In some instances, Sherrin used the pseudonym L. Richards to sign his painting, and this painting bears that signature in the lower right corner. On the left side the green hill is reflected in deeper color. The painting composition draws the viewer in through the water to the base of the mountain and the glowing mist. The canvas sight is 15.5" high and 23" wide, and the frame dimensions are 21" by 28" including the decorative molding. The frame is in overall very good condition with no losses. The back of the frame indicates a prior restoration that has been completed. The painting shows imperfections consistent with age and framing. However, the overall presence is very good, with rich color and visual clarity of all objects and light. There are gallery tags on the back, one referring to exhibition 1870-1890. The latter date is possible, but not the earlier one, or it does not belong to this painting. This work is fine in its detail and crispness, its impressionistic light and mist, and reflections in the water. Well-priced painting for work by Daniel Sherrin, aka L. Richards. Ready for your wall, to be enjoyed as it is.

  • Kirkton Bridge, Balquhidder
    By JD Henderson
    Located in Hillsborough, NC
    Impressionist/Post impressionist style painting 'Kirkton Bridge, Balquhidder' by Scottish contemporary artist JD Henderson, is a Monet-like image of a Scottish bridge in Balquhidder, the Clan homeland of McLaren in central Scotland. Dated 1995 (verso) and signed by the artist in the lower right corner, the painting is on canvas with oil paint in a new gold frame. JD Henderson is described as a 20th century Scottish Colourist and a landscape artist, using impressionism and post impressionism styles. 'Kirkton Bridge' demonstrates the Colourist trend, but also broader brushstrokes and thick applications of paint from post impressionism that gives the subject matter priority over fleeting naturalistic color and light. The actual bridge and water...

  • The River in October, Scotland circa 1900
    By Joseph Morris Henderson
    Located in Hillsborough, NC

Early in his career Henderson exhibited in the Royal Scottish Academy and the Royal Academy. His work is represented in the Kelvingrove gallery and in galleries and museums in the UK and abroad. Paintings by JM Henderson remain popular and collectible today. Provenance verso shows this painting was a gift to John Stewart, Architect. JM Henderson is Glaswegian, born in Glasgow and died in Glasgow. He grew up in a family of artists. Two brothers and his father Joseph Henderson were all known artists of the period. Henderson studied art in the Glasgow School of Art, and graduated from Glasgow University. Henderson excelled in Scottish landscapes, many in the softer colors of the countryside, rivers, seascapes and lochs. In contrast to the mountainous Highlands he found exceptional beauty in local scenery, farms, waters, and figures in the rural landscape. 'The River, October' is in oil paint on canvas, clearly signed lower right. It is presented in the likely original period gilded frame in good condition. The painting is in very fine condition with no noted faults or past restoration. The colors and brushstrokes are clear and distinct.

  • "Solebury Valley"
    By William Langson Lathrop
    Located in Lambertville, NJ
    Signed lower right. Complemented by a period frame. William L. Lathrop (1859-1938) Deemed “Father of the New Hope Art Colony”, William Langson Lathrop was born in Warren, Illinois. He was largely self-taught, having only studied briefly with William Merritt Chase in 1887, at the Art Students League. Lathrop first moved east in the early 1880s, and took a job at the Photoengraving Company in New York City. While there, he befriended a fellow employee, Henry B. Snell. The two men became lifelong friends and ultimately, both would be considered central figures among the New Hope Art Colony. Lathrop's early years as an artist were ones of continuing struggle. His efforts to break through in the New York art scene seemed futile, so he scraped enough money together to travel to Europe with Henry Snell in1888. There he met and married an English girl, Annie Burt. Upon returning to New York, he tried his hand at etching, making tools from old saw blades...
