About the Item

LESLIE E.B. SMYTHE 19th-century English rural landscapes, with goats by a river and people. Smythe was an English painter who was active in paintings in both Scotland and England. He painted landscapes in a traditional style. This example is an excellent piece and I think a perfect example of Victorian landscape art. The balance of composition and brushwork gives the painting a great feel and look. The painting is framed in a handmade English Walnut veneer frame.

By David Bates b.1840
Located in Woodbury, CT
David Bates 19th century English River landscape, with fisherman by the river side. David Bates was born in Cambridgeshire. He spent most of his early life in Worcestershire, where he became apprenticed at the Royal Worcester Porcelain Works. A painter in both oils and watercolours, Bates visited North Africa, before returning to paint landscapes mostly of Wales and Scotland. He shows the influence of Benjamin Williams Leader (1831-1923), Joseph Thors and S.H. Baker. David Bates also made small oil sketches of hedges and plants, which were usually inscribed on the reverse. The artist’s works display considerable technical virtuosity, ranging from the serene landscape, to the uneven swagger of his later works, which were noticeably less colourful. Although Bates was more than capable of producing refined landscapes, he was equably as capable of painting detailed...
