Description

A finely executed 19th-century pastoral scene depicting a drover and his horses stopping to water at a quiet riverside. Sunlight glows warmly from the right, illuminating the animals’ backs, while brooding clouds gather on the left. Rendered in a soft, romantic style, the composition evokes the idyllic charm of the countryside. Unsigned. On canvas on stretchers.

Condition

Very fine craquelure across the surface. Very light impression from the stretchers, notably to the right. The artwork has undergone previous restoration. The canvas has been relined. Inspection under UV light reveals small areas of overpainting, notably to the left of the artwork. Overall, the artwork is in very good condition for its age.
