About the Item
Picturesque scene of two children by a thatched cottage, pasture with sheep, pond and hills is signed W. Williams, attributed to a prominent 19th century artist in a family of British artists. Walter Williams is one of the best known of the family. This is a fine oil on canvas original painting.
Walter Heath Williams (1834-1906) was born into a family of landscape artists. He flourished during the Victorian period, exhibiting in the Royal Academy and the British Institute.
This simple cottage scene, titled 'Children At Play' presents an idyllic rural scene in summer, with soft light on the pond, green rolling pastures with a flock of sheep and figures of a boy and girl on the dirt path leading to the charming cottage.
This painting is within his genre of painting, recognizable by the brushstrokes in the leaves on the trees.
The painting is 21.5" high in the simple frame, and 29.5" wide. Saltire Gallerie has undertaken a light cleaning. The pale blues and white clouds in the sky have visible but stable craquelure with no paint flecks. No other fault is noted.
Presented in stable and good overall condition, this vintage Victorian painting is ready to hang.
