About the Item

Title: University Parks Oxford Landscape with Pine Tree and Summer Shadows by John Steane (b.1931) Size: 9 inches (height) x 12.25 inches (width) watercolor painting on paper, unframed condition: Good, some faint handling marks and light edge wear Provenance: from a large private collection of this artists work, Oxford, England Description: This original watercolour by British artist John Steane (b.1931) depicts a serene summer view in the University Parks, Oxford. Titled in pencil on the reverse University Parks Oxford, the scene features a tall pine tree casting cool shadows across the sunlit green of the open lawn. Behind it, loosely rendered tree lines create a gentle rhythm across the horizon, under a sky filled with textured cloud formations and bright, shifting light. Steane’s composition offers a fresh, contemporary take on traditional English parkland. His brushwork moves confidently between dense evergreens and open space, with light and shadow used to striking effect. The subject—a secluded corner of one of Oxford’s most beloved public spaces—invites a moment of reflection, walking, or rest. The University Parks span over 70 acres and are home to rare trees, cricket pitches, and footpaths that wind past the River Cherwell. For collectors of Oxford scenes, British green spaces, or plein air studies of natural light and texture, this painting captures the fleeting clarity of an English summer’s day. A strong addition to collections focused on the British landscape, university towns, or studies of light and foliage.
