Richmond Terrace, December Sunset

The spectacular evening sky is the main event of this powerful en plein air painting. With bold, dynamic brush strokes, the artist beautifully captures the blazing rays of the setting sun, contrasting warm orange with vibrant blue and casting shadows across the landscape. An evening mist settling in the distance trees. A highly expressive piece capturing the expressive energy of the painter towards his subject. This view over the thames from richmond terrace, made recognisable by the likes of turner, reynolds and wordsworth, has been described by sir walter scott as an 'unrivalled landscape'. Artist name: jackson gary. Approx date: signed and dated 12/16. Board size: h 50 cm X w 60 cm. Medium: oil on board. Condition: good.
