1866 Buxton Curl Donegal Moore Verso
EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolor painting, titled "The Curl, Donegal; verso, Cart at Buxton" (1866), is a stunning work by the renowned Irish artist James Moore. The image on the recto side depicts the iconic wave known as The Curl, located in the picturesque coastal region of Donegal, Ireland. The powerful, frothy wave crashes against the rugged cliffs, creating a sense of raw energy and power. On the verso side of the paper, Moore has captured a quiet moment in the quaint village of Buxton. A traditional Irish cart, laden with goods, makes its way along a narrow cobblestone street. The cart's horse, dressed in a harness, looks up at its owner, who walks alongside, deep in thought. The peaceful scene contrasts beautifully with the dynamic image on the other side, highlighting the diverse beauty of the Irish landscape. James Moore, born in 1819, was a prolific artist who specialized in watercolors and oil paintings. His works often depicted the natural beauty of Ireland, with a particular focus on its coastlines and rural landscapes. This exquisite watercolor, created in 1866, is a testament to his mastery of the medium and his deep appreciation for the Irish countryside. The paper on which the painting is executed is of high quality, with a subtle texture that enhances the richness of the watercolor. The intricate details of the cart, the horse, and the village buildings are rendered with great care and precision. The overall effect is a work of art that transports the viewer to a bygone era, evoking feelings of nostalgia and wonder.
