Title: 1982 Watercolour of Dittisham River Dart Devon with Boats and Woodland Hills
By Tony Herbert (1927-2024)
Medium: Watercolor on artists paper
Size: 10.75 x 14.75 inches
Annotated verso: “Dittisham 82”
Condition: very good; some natural ageing to paper edges, otherwise well preserved
Provenance: From a large private collection of this artists work, Oxford, England
Description: A serene and atmospheric 1982 watercolour by Tony Herbert, this painting captures the quiet charm of Dittisham, a riverside village in South Devon located on the banks of the River Dart. Known for its lush hillsides, bobbing boats and peaceful harbour, Dittisham has long attracted artists seeking to convey the timeless beauty of the West Country.
Herbert paints the scene with his signature restraint — letting soft washes of green, grey and blue do the work of storytelling. In the foreground, a shoreline reveals a mix of silt and pebbles at low tide, while the middle ground features a wooden jetty stretching across the river, lined with small boats. The wooded hills on either side of the Dart create a natural frame, with layered tonal washes adding a sense of depth and softness.
This piece is notable for its calmness — no figures, no buildings, just the organic rhythm of river life. It invites viewers into a moment of stillness and contemplation, a hallmark of Herbert’s landscape work in the later decades of his career.
Dittisham is situated near Dartmouth, and watercolours of this particular location remain highly collectible among those with connections to Devon, sailing, or the River Dart estuary. A beautiful and meditative work that speaks to collectors of British river landscapes, South Devon scenery, or 1980s watercolour painting.
