Lot 988: J. John Steven (20th Century), Thatched Cottage in a Garden Landscape, Oil on Canvas
An oil on canvas painting by J. John Steven, depicting a picturesque English countryside scene. The composition features a white timber-framed cottage with a thick thatched roof, nestled among mature trees. A vibrant cottage garden filled with various colourful flowers leads from the dwelling down to a pond in the foreground. The work is executed in a traditional representational style, using expressive brushwork to create texture in the foliage and dabs of bright colour for the floral elements. The painting is signed J. John Steven in the lower right corner. It is housed in a stepped dark wood frame with a narrow gilded inner slip.
