Title: Coastal Harbour View With Sailboats And Stone Buildings Cornwall 1988
By Tony Herbert (1927-2024)
Medium: Watercolor on paper, unframed
Size: 11 inches (height) x 15 inches (width)
Condition: good, will some signs on wear consistent with aging
Provenance: From a large private collection of this artists work, Oxford, England
Description: This peaceful harbour scene captures the timeless charm of a Cornish coastal village, rendered with delicate brushwork and sun-washed tones. Likely painted in 1989 based on the artist’s handwritten inscription on the reverse, this piece conveys the quiet rhythm of harbour life. A lone sailboat floats gently in the calm water, with another moored by the sandbank, their reflections softly merging into the ripples. Stone buildings line the right-hand side of the composition, their weathered facades suggesting years of sea spray and salt air. Greenery on the distant headland provides a natural counterbalance to the built environment, while the subdued palette and crisp drawing echo the traditions of British plein air painting.
The composition invites the viewer to wander along the water’s edge, perhaps to imagine the stories of those who have lived and worked in this place. The inclusion of the date adds historical charm and a sense of captured memory, ideal for collectors interested in late 20th-century watercolour works. Cornwall’s rugged coastline and quaint harbours continue to inspire artists, and this painting offers an evocative snapshot of the region’s enduring appeal.

William (Bill) Paxton 1930—2007
William Paxton, born August 5, 1930 in Lewiston, was one of Maine’s top selling artists. He had a passion for painting and from a young age he was known for his talents in sketching.

As a student at Bridgton Academy, he was featured in his yearbook. It states, “When artist Bill picks up his pen, we all stand at attention, for his remarks and pictures are certainly worth mention.” He wanted to pursue a career selling his art, but it was during the time of the Great Depression.
Also in his younger years, Paxton had an interest in skiing and won a medal for Second Highest Ski Jump. From there he went to flying and received a certification for Second-in-Command, to fly alongside the captain in a C-46F type of aircraft. He then joined the Air Force in the 40’s, although his passion and talents for art were constant throughout his life.
Paxton quickly became the front line military sketch...
