About the Item

Title: Walberswick Marshes and Black Sheds Suffolk Landscape Watercolor 1995 By Tony Herbert (1927-2024) Inscribed verso in pencil “Walberswick Sept 95” Medium: Watercolor on artists paper Size: 11 x 15 inches Condition: Good overall; minor corner wear and subtle warping to paper edge Provenance: From a large private collection of this artists work, Oxford, England Description: This 1995 watercolor by Tony Herbert depicts the expansive salt marshes of Walberswick, one of Suffolk’s most atmospheric and historically significant coastal villages. Broad, open skies stretch above a tidal creek that winds through grassy wetland and sandy banks, with two of Walberswick’s iconic black fishermen’s huts and red-roofed cottages anchoring the left side of the composition. The scene is rendered in Herbert’s characteristically confident and economical brushwork, using wet-in-wet techniques and dry-brush accents to evoke the layered textures of reedy marshland, soft earth and cloud-streaked sky. The dark sheds — a hallmark of Walberswick’s fishing heritage — stand out against a low, cool skyline, while the spire of Southwold church can be faintly seen on the horizon. Collectors searching for “Walberswick marsh painting,” “Suffolk landscape watercolor,” or “British coastal wetland artwork” will find this piece richly evocative of place. Walberswick, long associated with the British Impressionist movement and a favourite of artists including Philip Wilson Steer and Charles Rennie Mackintosh, remains one of East Anglia’s most painted coastal locations. Herbert’s perspective, drawn from life, brings authenticity and immediacy to the composition. This work would sit beautifully in a coastal interior or countryside home, offering a contemplative and grounded view of rural England. It speaks to both lovers of British landscape painting and those with a personal connection to East Suffolk’s unique landscape and light.
