About the Item

Title: British Impressionist Watercolor of Riverside Scene of Tewkesbury By Anthony Avery (British 1946-2023) Original watercolor on artists paper, unframed Dimensions: 11 x 15.25 inches (Height x Width) Condition: Good, with some minor signs of aging. Provenance: From a large collection of this artists work, held in England. Description: This picturesque watercolor captures a bustling riverside view of Tewkesbury, with a harmonious blend of historic architecture set against a vibrant, clear sky. In the foreground, soft, varied brushstrokes depict tall grasses and reeds, gently swaying along the edge of the water, inviting the viewer to feel the tranquility of the scene. The water’s surface reflects the buildings and sky above with subtle ripples, creating an impression of movement and depth. The architecture spans a range of styles, with Tudor-style black-and-white timbered houses standing proudly next to red-bricked and whitewashed structures. These buildings, with their distinctively sloped roofs and characteristic details, are rendered with a mix of precision and artistic looseness, giving each one personality while maintaining the overall harmony of the composition. A blue narrowboat is moored by the riverside, adding a touch of daily life and color to the scene. In the background, the tall silhouette of a church tower rises above the buildings, adding a sense of historical gravity and anchoring the skyline. Delicate strokes in the sky depict wispy clouds, enhancing the airy and light-filled atmosphere of the scene. The artist’s skilled use of light and shadow imbues the painting with a warm, welcoming ambiance, inviting viewers to imagine themselves strolling along the riverside path, soaking in the quaint charm and historic beauty of Tewkesbury. This piece captures not just a place, but the peaceful rhythm of life by the river.
