EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Charles Parsons Knight that offers a picturesque glimpse into the charming fishing village of Solva in North Pembrokeshire, Wales. This exquisite artwork, measuring 53.3x88.9 cm, showcases Knight's mastery in capturing the beauty of his surroundings. The scene depicted in this painting portrays Knight's own garden overlooking St. Bride's Bay, with its idyllic cottages and the vibrant masts of boats rising above their rooftops. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he includes stooks of straw covering beehives on the left side of the composition. Originally exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1862, "From my Window at Solva" perfectly encapsulates Knight's transition from being a sailor to an accomplished painter. Having begun his artistic journey by depicting ships in Bristol Harbour, he later honed his skills through formal education at the Bristol Academy. This print captures every brushstroke and color nuance present in Knight's original masterpiece held within a private collection.
