Description:
A striking and atmospheric watercolour by John Steane (b.1931), signed and dated 1996. This original painting captures a distinctive view of suburban or outer London as dusk settles over the city. In the foreground, a field of vivid yellow stretches across the midground, contrasted with silhouetted trees and an architectural foreground of fencing, utility structures, and rooftops. A single, wind-swept tree rises into the composition on the left, echoed by distant tower blocks and the blocky forms of industrial or civic buildings on the horizon.
The sky dominates the piece—a spectacular blend of violet, gold, blue and rose pink hues, layered with dramatic cloud formations and fine detailing of birds in flight. Steane balances architectural form with expressive natural elements, a quality that lends the piece both narrative and emotional weight.
While unsigned works by Steane often centre on countryside or coastal scenes, this is a rare example of his more urban or industrial subject matter, executed with the same looseness of brushstroke and sensitivity to colour and tone. Ideal for collectors interested in British modern watercolour, post-industrial landscapes, or artworks depicting London in transition during the late 20th century.
This piece would sit well in a contemporary interior or alongside other atmospheric depictions of changing urban spaces.
