About the Item

Title: Hope Cove Devon Harbour View with Sailboats and Beach Watercolour Painting 1984 By Tony Herbert (1927-2024) Medium: Watercolor on artists paper Size: 11 x 13.75 inches Annotated Verso: “Hope Cove 84” Condition: Very good; clean paper surface with strong colours and minimal edge wear Provenance: From a large private collection of this artists work, Oxford, England Description:A serene and softly atmospheric 1984 watercolour landscape by British artist Tony Herbert 1927 to 2024 depicting the coastal village of Hope Cove in South Devon. The painting captures the quiet beauty of this sheltered bay with sailboats gently anchored in the harbour and the outlines of cliffs rising in the background under a pale sky. Subtle tonal transitions in the water and sky create a tranquil mood while the foreground beach is loosely rendered in warm ochres and browns. Hope Cove is part of the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is a favourite among painters and visitors for its dramatic headland coastal paths and sandy shoreline. This painting captures the cove from a distance with minimal detail allowing light and composition to define the scene. A small white boat with a red cabin near the centre adds a touch of character and focal interest. Tony Herbert’s sensitivity to light movement and coastal form is clearly on display here making this an ideal acquisition for collectors of Devon maritime subjects British seascapes or 20th century plein air watercolour painting.
