About the Item

Title: Walberswick Tidal Creek with Moored Dinghies Suffolk Watercolor by Tony Herbert By Tony Herbert (1927-2024) Medium: Watercolor on artists paper Size: 9.75 x 13.75 inches Condition: Good overall; minor corner wear and subtle warping to paper edge Provenance: From a large private collection of this artists work, Oxford, England Description: This luminous plein-air watercolor captures the quiet magic of Walberswick, the celebrated artists’ village on the Suffolk Heritage Coast. Tony Herbert positions the viewer on the silty edge of the River Blyth at low tide, looking across glass-calm water toward the yellow-green reedbeds and distant heath beyond. In the foreground, a cluster of small working dinghies – one bright crimson, another midnight blue – rest alongside weathered wooden posts and a narrow jetty, their reflections rippling across pale aquamarine shallows. Herbert’s economy of mark is on full display: quick graphite construction lines remain visible at the margins, while transparent washes of cobalt teal, lemon ochre and burnt sienna convey shifting light and salt-marsh texture without overstatement. The result is an authentic record of the ever-changing coastal landscape that has inspired generations from Philip Wilson Steer to Charles Rennie Mackintosh. Collectors searching online for “Walberswick painting,” “Suffolk estuary art,” or “British river dinghies watercolor” will find here an original, on-the-spot study by a painter whose intuitive draughtsmanship was honed over decades as a professional illustrator. Walberswick’s long association with the plein-air movement, its crab-lined jetties and tidal creeks, continue to resonate with art lovers worldwide. Herbert’s sheet distils that atmosphere into a compact, ready-to-frame composition ideal for coastal interiors, sailing clubs, holiday homes and anyone with a connection to East Anglia. The strong primary-coloured boats give the scene a modern pop, making it equally at home in contemporary design schemes.
