Lot 927: British School, 19th Century, A Tranquil Woodland Landscape with a Distant Lake
British School, 19th Century. A tranquil woodland landscape. This oil on canvas depicts a mature tree in the left foreground with an atmospheric clearing revealing a body of water in the distance. The work is rendered in a Romantic tradition, utilising a palette of ochre, earthy greens, and soft blues. The brushwork in the sky is blended with a sfumato-like quality, while the foliage features more textured, impasto application. The painting is presented in a simple, modern white-painted wooden slat frame. A modern auction label from Liskeard Auction Rooms for Lot 927 is affixed to the frame. No signature or date is visible on the front of the canvas.
