This is a fine quality antique Welsh Victorian landscape painting, of a rural river / country scene in Conwy, North Wales, by Cornelius Pearson, circa 1877, in excellent condition. Cornelius Pearson was a famous Royal Academy Artist and famous for his landscape scenes. The artist skilfully leads the eye into the scene with a gushing waterfall which descends from the mountain above to the dark still pool, here a man patiently fishes.
...Probably a late autumn afternoon as the rustic foliage of the trees and the dark rocks contrasts well with the mountain which is bathed in a blue haze. The watercolour is pleasing to view and a subject that one would not tire of viewing.
The painting has the skill to draw you in with its range of mellow colour hues and texture depicting the quintessential Welsh country landscape. The Victorian watercolour picture, which is painted on paper on board, is signed “Cornelius Pearson” and dated “1877” in the bottom right-hand corner. The watercolour is housed in a sympathetic gilt frame, which is in good condition.
