About the Item

This lovely British Post Impressionist 1950's landscape oil painting is from a collection of Peter L Field paintings acquired from the family. The composition is a view through trees to a dwelling beyond. What is more significant is the fantastic use of colour and heavy impasto brushwork, both in the foreground and beyond the trees' purples jostled with greens to brilliant effect. A really vibrant oil painting that just works and an excellent example of Field's eye for colour. There is also a beautiful painting of tall lilies verso. Provenance. From family collection. Condition. Oil on canvas, 24 inches by 20 inches and in good condition. Frame. Housed in a complementary frame, 31 inches by 27 inches framed and in good condition. Peter L Field (born 1920) - painter in oils, printmaker and teacher born in Winson in Gloucestershire. He studied at Cheltenham School of Art, 1937-9, with Seaton A White, then at Goldsmiths College London, 1946-49 under Clive Gardiner. After teaching in Paignton and Swindon he went to Birmingham, retiring in 1982 as head of the art and design faculty at City of Birmingham Polytechnic. He showed at The Royal Academy and in the provinces and Swindon Museum and Art gallery hold his works.
