EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Abingdon, 1887" by Keeley Halswelle, a renowned English artist of the 19th century. Painted with oil on canvas, this masterpiece measures 50.8x78.74 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The artwork transports us to Abingdon, a picturesque town near Oxford nestled along the serene River Thames. Halswelle's love for water and his fascination with the Thames are evident in this piece as he skillfully captures the tranquility of the valley on a warm summer's day. The sky above is adorned with fluffy clouds that cast playful shadows over still waters adorned with delicate lily pads. Halswelle's attention to detail brings life to every element within this landscape painting. The flat flood plain surrounding Abingdon feeds into marshes and pools, creating an idyllic countryside scene typical of rural England during that era. Interestingly, another notable work by Halswelle titled "Gathering Clouds" measuring 105 x 160 cms and dated back to 1878, bears resemblance to this painting. It features an inscription referring to Medmenham. This remarkable print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate Halswelle's artistic brilliance while immersing ourselves in the beauty of English landscapes from yesteryears - where nature meets artistry in perfect harmony.
