About the Item

An oil on board painting depicting a Scottish landscape with lake by Welsh-born Scottish artist John Adam Houston. The painting is framed. The painting is signed and date 84 on the lower left. "John Adam Houston was born in 1812 in North Wales to Scottish parents. In the late 1820s, he studied in Edinburgh under Sir William Allan and was greatly influenced by Sir David Wilkie, one of the great figures of Scottish painting in the early nineteenth century. Houston's style incorporates the gusto and richness of the Scottish Realist school with contrasting warm colors and deep areas of shadow. He specialized in historical and genre painting and regularly exhibited in London and Edinburgh, including An Arab (1847) and An Incident in the Desert (1854)". Quote from Sotheby's.
