Prometheus Antiques has dated this piece to the 1910s.
The watercolour is mounted behind an off-white slip of large size that really helps to draw the eye into the work. The gilt frame is modern as is the mount and both are in very good condition. The watercolour is in very good untouched condition with the colours bright and fresh. The piece is signed in full to the lower left ‘M.S.Hagarty’. Miss Mary. S. Hagarty is a well recorded artist and also the sister of a similar artist of note; Parker Hagarty. Mary was a confirmed watercolourist and most of her work is landscape. She exhibited from 1882-1938 including often at the Royal Academy where views listed are: the Wye and Severn Valleys and the East Anglian Coast. Her exhibitor address has her living in Liverpool in 1882 but by 1896 she was in London. She was elected an associate of the Society of Woman Artist in 1915 and made a full member in 1916. Her exhibited works include 8 at The Royal Society of Art Birmingham, 189 at The Walker Art Gallery Liverpool, 26 at The Royal Academy, 58 at The Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolour, and 93 at The Society of Woman Artists. This work is a fine example of her art and a charming, bright picture in excellent condition. C.1910
