Description:
A rare and captivating interior study of a traditional weaving workshop at Cogswell Manor Farm, painted in 1988 by British artist John Steane. This richly detailed watercolour offers a unique glimpse into the world of textile production, showing a lone weaver at work beneath the beams and pulley systems of a full-scale wooden loom.
The painting is filled with visual interest and technical insight—labelled notations can be seen across the top and sides, suggesting this may have been painted on-site as part of a research or documentary project. From the spools of thread to the shafts, beams, and treadles, Steane meticulously records the craft and mechanics of weaving in both colour and line.
Cogswell Manor Farm appears to have been a working site of heritage or rural industry—this piece would appeal not only to art collectors but also to those with an interest in British textile history, craftsmanship, or industrial heritage. The use of bright yellows and shadows suggests a warm, lively space filled with quiet movement and purpose.
Ideal for display in craft-focused interiors, studios, or rural settings, this is a rare example of Steane’s documentation of working life and machinery in motion.
