Fine Large Antique 19th Century Landscape Oil Painting of Sunrise North Wales
The painting is signed by the artist and dated 1867 - in which year it was exhibited at the Royal Society of British Artists in London - and presented in a fine quality gold metal leaf frame. All of our paintings are offered in the finest condition they can be for their age having just been professionally cleaned. Edwin Henry Boddington first exhibited in London aged 17 in 1853. In the first 15 years of his career Edwin Henry Boddington exhibited extensively at the Royal Academy, the British Institution, and especially with the Royal Society of British Artists. Due to personal misfortunes the quality of his work fell dramatically in the 1870s but prior to this Bonnington's landscapes were every bit as accomplished as those of his father and his uncle, Sidney Richard Percy. The painting comes from the private collection of the Matthews family of Great Witchingham Hall, one of the finest stately homes in Norfolk. (canvas only) 76cm x 127cm (30" x 50").
