Description

A charming oil on board landscape oil by Frank Edward Burnham Hughes 1905-1987. A mid-century oil landscape of a farm in Autumn, once the leaves have fallen from the trees.

Frank Hughes was born at St Pancras, London and studied at St Martin's School of Art. He was influential in the London art scene of the time and exhibited at The Royal Academy through the fifties, he was also a full member of The New English Art Club. A fine example of mid-century landscape painting mounted in a modern frame.

Landscape oil painting involves using pigments suspended in a drying oil medium to capture natural scenery, often focusing on fields, skies, and rural buildings.

Traditional pieces typically utilise woven linen or cotton canvas stretched over wooden frames, painted with linseed-oil-based pigments and housed in timber mouldings.

Authenticity is assessed by examining canvas ageing, stretcher frame construction, artist signatures, craquelure patterns, and the type of pigments used.

An antique landscape anchors a contemporary room by introducing organic texture and historical depth, often displayed against neutral walls with directional picture lighting.

Paintings should be kept away from direct sunlight, high humidity, and extreme temperature fluctuations to prevent canvas slackening and varnish discolouration.
