About the Item

Title: British Impressionist Watercolor of Winter Sunset over Sledging Figures By Anthony Avery (British 1946-2023) Original watercolor on artists paper, unframed Dimensions: 11.25 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 watercolor captures a serene winter landscape, bathed in the warm glow of an early evening sunset. In the foreground, snow-covered hills stretch across the scene, rendered in soft tones that capture the reflective, almost purplish hues of winter shadows. The snow’s delicate texture contrasts beautifully with the dark, skeletal trees, whose bare branches reach upward, etched against the gradient sky. The artist’s brushwork highlights the fine, intricate details of these trees, making them appear both delicate and resilient. As the eye moves toward the middle ground, small figures are seen sledging down the hillside, adding a joyful, dynamic element to the otherwise tranquil setting. These figures, bundled against the winter chill, bring a sense of liveliness and play, with their sleds leaving faint trails in the snow as they descend. Their presence, painted with delicate strokes, adds a touch of warmth and human interaction to the wintry scene. In the distance, the scene transitions to a row of hills silhouetted against the sky, their muted tones creating a harmonious backdrop for the village beyond. The village itself is marked by a prominent church spire, standing tall against the fading light, a subtle but powerful symbol of continuity and shelter. The spire, with its distinct shape, anchors the composition and draws the viewer’s gaze across the layered landscape. The sky above is a masterpiece of watercolor gradients, shifting from cool blues and purples to warm yellows and oranges as it descends toward the horizon. The colors blend seamlessly, capturing the fleeting warmth of the setting sun, which casts a gentle glow over the snowy terrain. The painting evokes a profound sense of calm and joy, a quiet yet lively moment where nature and human life coexist in perfect harmony.

English Snow covered Winter Landscape with people by a house, rising Sun
Located in Woodbury, CT
Peter has an absolute love of oil painting and especially admires the masters of Dutch Painting of the 17th Century, which is reflected in his own work. Since 1995, after seeing the work of Estonian artist Olav Maran, Peter decided to review his paintings and started researching ‘Still Life’ painters such as Willem Kalf and De Heem. After experimenting with priming his own panels and canvases with different colours, then painting with thick and thin paint and glazing on top, in the way of the old masters, he has developed a style with detail and atmosphere that is essential in his portrayal of fine wine, fruit and cheeses etc. In a quirky and sometimes conceptual world, Peter makes no apologies for producing traditional subjects where the craftsmanship is evident in every brushstroke. His paintings bring much joy and pleasure to those who understand he has an obvious and underlying love of handling paint and observing his subject using techniques that take many years to acquire. Recently he has changed the view point for some of his paintings, to give them a bold contemporary look. Peter Kotka...
