About the Item

Title: Sailing Boats Moored on the Thames with View to Richmond Bridge Watercolour By Tony Herbert (1927-2024) Signed: Lower left corner Medium: Watercolor on paper, unframed Size: 9.75 inches (height) x 13.75 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: A serene and luminous riverside watercolour by British artist Tony Herbert, showing a cluster of sailboats moored along the River Thames, with the elegant arches of Richmond Bridge visible in the distance. The gentle treatment of water, trees, and sky reveals Herbert’s gift for atmosphere and quiet detail. On the right, a leafy footpath curves into frame beneath bare winter trees, lending a sense of place and seasonality. Frederick Anthony Herbert (1927–2024), known professionally as Tony Herbert, was a British illustrator and watercolourist who began his career in the film industry before training at Ealing School of Art. After decades as a children’s book illustrator, he devoted himself fully to landscape painting, often focusing on British scenes in Dorset, Suffolk, Venice, and West London, where he lived for many years. His watercolours are known for their lyrical calm, confident draughtsmanship, and evocative light. This work exemplifies his ability to capture a moment of peaceful reflection. The calm water, soft washes of green and grey, and carefully observed boats give the piece a timeless quality. A perfect choice for collectors of British riverside scenes, Thames views, or mid-century watercolour artists.
