Large Watercolour Painting by Jane Utley - 1928

1900 - 1920
For Sale by Vicky Thomas Antiques (Reserved for a buyer)
Description

Here is a very large and imposing watercolour painting of an English country cottage garden in full bloom - alive with Hollyhocks, Delphiniums and Rambling Roses.

The painting has a certain light quality to it that reminds me of early evening, with the doves coming in to roost on the porch roof, whilst the eye is drawn to a tantalising glimpse of the sea, just visible through a crumbling ancient archway. I can just imagine how the garden would lie heavy with the scent of Honey suckle, the stones still warm from the heat of the daytime sun.

Jane Utley painted this in 1928, and has signed it lower right, and also added a name plate on the back of the painting with the title taken from the 18th Century poem 'The Landslip' by William Shenstone. ''Has ever scene so deck'd with Flowers were ever flowers so gay'

The painting measures 70cm by 60cm framed, the image being 50cm by 40cm. The colours are bright and vibrant, with just the surface wear to the frame that would be expected of an item of this age.

Please do not hesitate to get in touch if I can provide any further information or pictures.

I offer free delivery in the UK, and am very happy to help with quotes for shipping abroad.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Early 20th-century British watercolours often focused on pastoral scenes, cottage gardens, and architectural elements, utilising soft washes and layered pigments to capture light and natural texture.

Traditional watercolours consist of water-soluble pigments applied to heavy cotton or linen paper, mounted behind protective glass within wooden or gilt frames.

Original watercolours display visible brushwork and variations in paint density, often accompanying a artists signature, date, and natural ageing or toning on the paper edge.

A framed garden watercolour works well hung above a sideboard, fireplace mantel, or integrated into a gallery wall alongside brass or dark wood accents.

Display watercolours away from direct sunlight and high humidity, ideally using UV-protective glass and acid-free mounting materials to prevent fading and discoloration.
