About the Item

Title: British Village Edge Red Roof Houses and Rural Track Watercolour Landscape By Tony Herbert (1927-2024) Medium: Watercolor on board Size: 14.5 x 18.25 inches Condition: Good; some light foxing in the sky and upper corners, board edges slightly aged Provenance: From a large private collection of this artists work, Oxford, England Description: An evocative watercolour by British artist Tony Herbert 1927 to 2024 depicting the edge of a rural village with red roofed houses set against an expansive green landscape. Though the location is unidentified this scene is typical of mid century British countryside towns with their winding footpaths tiled chimneys and wide open farmland beyond. The foreground is filled with expressive brushstrokes suggesting long grasses and hedgerows while a soft path leads the eye past the buildings into the open fields and distant telegraph lines. This piece showcases Herbert’s skill in balancing architectural detail with looser natural brushwork. The contrast between the rigid geometry of the houses and the fluid movement of the vegetation gives the scene a lived-in organic quality. Though undated the materials and style are consistent with the artist’s landscapes from the 1970s and 80s. A beautiful example of postwar English watercolour painting this artwork would suit collectors of British vernacular landscapes lovers of country architecture or those seeking a timeless rural composition.
