Description: | This watercolour shows the landscape around Barnard Castle in County Durham. The view framed by tall trees in the foreground is very similar to Italian landscapes in the classical tradition from the 17th century onwards. The Italian style is continued by the golden glow cast by the sun over the landscape, and the beautiful blue sky above. Henry Gastineau made many painting trips around Britain. He was a London drawing teacher. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | art movement artists watercolours other North East art North East artists | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
