Man and his dog in a rustic landscape on a lovely cloudy day. Painted possibly in Lowestoft in circa 1891.
 
Painted in a lovely craggy brush stroke style in the foreground and wonderful atmospheric style clouds.
 
The artist must have been experimenting with the rule of lean over fat slower with slower drying under layers and faster drying upper lays, usually seen in sketches or plein air painters.
 
This captivating 19th-century oil on panel by Nathaniel Hone the Younger depicts a serene rustic landscape, infused with a sense of nostalgia and tranquillity. The scene is set under a brooding, cloudy sky that casts a soft, diffused light over the rolling hills and lush greenery.
 
Hone''s masterful brushwork captures the subtle textures of the landscape, from the gentle undulations of the hills to the delicate play of light and shadow among the foliage.
