Description: | 93.0 x 124.5 s. in pencil b.r. "Philip Reeves" CRE REEVES, Philip; (English; b. 1931) NFA assisted purchase. "There is a fairly remote path, more of a track, that skirts Cleve Hill (the highest point of the Cotswalds) and winds down eventually to a village, Winchcombe. The track is flanked in one side by a cotswald stone wall and on the other by trees, bushes or open country. At intervals there are gates, originally traditional ones made of wood (five bars). these have largely disintigrated and broken down. Some have been replaced by iron structures which in turn have weathered and rusted. Some have been repainted green. Occasionally the gates have notice boards attached warning walkers to please close the gate; dogs must be kept on a lead; etc.etc. These notices too have seen happier days and the typography is now faded, scratched or dropped off (as in the painting)
This is one of my favourite walks and I have done many notes and drawings en route." letter from Philip Reeves to HAG 2/11/1983. | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | LANDSCAPE : ENGLAND : COLLAGE : ABSTRACT : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
