About the Item
A striking mid-20th century landscape painting titled Evening Flight Over the Lake, inspired by the evocative November 4, 1939 cover of The Field—“The Country Newspaper.” This atmospheric scene captures a trio of silhouetted ducks gliding across a twilight sky, their forms stark against the glowing clouds and shadowed tree line. Rendered in richly layered tones of blue, violet, and gold, the piece beautifully translates the original black-and-white photograph by E. Barraud of Saddle Gate, Wollaton, Nottingham into a vibrant, painterly vision.
The artist, identified only by the monogram “JS” in red at the lower right, demonstrates a confident and sensitive hand. The verso retains the actual vintage cover of The Field that inspired the work, affixed to the backing board—offering both provenance and a narrative link to the original image.
Presented in a classic ebonized frame with a gilt rope-twist liner, the painting exudes both warmth and British sporting charm, ideal for collectors of vintage landscapes and field sports ephemera.
