About the Item

A fine and delicate watercolour study by Thomas Charles Leeson Rowbotham (1823-1875), capturing the quiet rhythms of life in a coastal community. In the foreground, women wash and hang white linens along the beach, their modest fishermen's cottages forming the heart of the composition. Beyond them, a row of newly built Georgian townhouses rises along the promenade, offering a subtle contrast between humble tradition and emerging prosperity. Finished with refined touches of gouache, this work beautifully balances observation, atmosphere, and social narrative. Signed and dated to the lower edge. On paper.
