Brave Fine Art has dated this piece to the 1920s.
The sky brisk and wispy - an overcast morning within earshot of the Falloch.
Parker’s sharp brushwork creates palpable movement. As if, in a moment, the sky could clear and transform the topography. The light we witness is occasional and fleeting.
He often ventured north in search of epic peaks and enchanting lochs. It’s a long haul from London and entirely otherworldly.
The name Glenfalloch derives from the Gaelic 'Gleann-falaich’ or ‘valley of concealment’.
