Description: This gentle, windswept coastal view by British painter Tony Herbert (1927–2024) offers a more rural take on the ever-popular Robin Hood’s Bay. Painted in 1983, the scene depicts a quiet cluster of cottages nestled on a grassy slope, overlooking the expansive North Sea. A simple fence in the foreground leads the eye toward the buildings and beyond to the soft grey outlines of distant headlands, veiled in sea mist.
Unlike many of Herbert’s harbour scenes, this piece emphasises space and atmosphere. The architecture is softened by the lush greens of the hillside and a sky that speaks of weather — part cloud, part light. The loose brushwork and controlled colour palette evoke a moment of stillness between changes in weather, perfectly capturing the spirit of Yorkshire’s coastline.
Robin Hood’s Bay is famed for its red roofs, steep lanes, and fishing history, but Herbert’s approach here focuses on its more pastoral edges. The painting would suit collectors of understated coastal landscapes, British countryside views, and lovers of the North Yorkshire coast. It brings a quiet poetry to any interior — from heritage cottage to contemporary space.
