It is by a twentieth century French artist, R. Saville. The painting is signed by the artist in the lower left section and dated April 2001. Connemara is a district on the western coast of Ireland, facing the Atlantic. It has a picturesque coastline with many tiny coves and fishing villages. Inland, Connemara has a vast expanse of lakes, bogs and heathland along with mountain ranges. The National Park is also home to a herd of Connemara ponies. Connemara has a strong association with traditional Irish culture and is an area much favoured by artists for its rural aesthetic. This painting depicts a traditional crofter’s cottage on the banks of a lake, with stone walls around it, and a landscape of lush green fields, with a range of mountains rising up on the near horizon. The palette is of verdant greens, hues of ochre and bronze and cool pale blues with wisps of purple. Overall, this is a gorgeous painting, capturing the remote beauty of this amazing part of Ireland.

He specialised in watercolour paintings of the Home Counties and the south coast and exhibited in several galleries. He has been described as a Bohemian, and from the 1960s to the 1980s he liked to frequent Soho, where he drank in the Coach and Horses in Old Compton Street. He liked to travel by bicycle and often cycled around the countryside, exchanging paintings for bed and board. He died on 28 November 2011. Courtyard Arts, where he painted and socialised for many years was something of a ‘second home’ for him and held a retrospective exhibition of his works in 2012. His works have a relaxed mellow style that belies the skill and expertise invested in their execution. © Big Sky Fine Art This original painting by Lionel Horsnell is watercolour on coloured paper and heightened in white.

  • NYC Watercolor Drawing American Modern 20th Century Modernism Mid-Century WPA
    By David Fredenthal
    Located in New York, NY
    NYC Watercolor Drawing American Modern 20th Century Modernism Mid-Century WPA. David Fredenthal (1914-1958) "View of New York from New Jersey,"7 x 10 inches. Watercolor on Paper, c. 1948. Signed lower right. David Fredenthal (1914 - 1958) was one ot America's most respected watercolor artists. He was famous for his bold, intensely vigorous and complex paintings and drawings that expressed his deep feeling for excitement with life and living. He was a draftsman with seemingly a special gift for catching anything, physically and emotionally on the spot, and he never went anywhere without three or four loaded pens and a sketchbook in his pocket. As part of the WPA project he executed a number of murals including the Sports Pavilion on the Heinz Building of the New York World's Fair 1939. Some of his fresco and mural techniques were inspired by his friendship with Diego Rivera who had admired and encouraged him in the early 1930's. After he won a traveling scholarship to Europe from The Museum of Modern Art at age 19, he was the recipient of two Guggenheim grants in Painting. He had his first solo exhibition at the Downtown Gallery in New York in 1937 at age 23, and many others after that including the Whitney Museum of American Art in 1947. Because of Fredenthal's prodigious drawing gifts, he was chosen by Erskine Caldwell to illustrate his novel "Tobacco Road...
