Amos Green, Near Ingleton, Yorkshire - Antique Watercolour

19th century
For Sale by Brave Fine Art
Description

This fine early 19th-century watercolour by British artist Amos Green (1735-1807) depicts an asperous gorge near Ingleton in Yorkshire.

On either side of a shallow river, trees cling to a precipitous surface of boulders and scabrous foliage. It’s possibly a view of the Twiss, Greta or Doe. The walks from Ingleton are some of the most spectacular in the Dales.

Green moved to Yorkshire in 1796 and sketched its sublime environs extensively. Together with his wife, Harriet, the pair undertook numerous study tours and filled their sketchbooks with picturesque views. Via a shared passion for nature and art, they were bound in perpetuity.

Following Green’s death, Harriet drafted his memoirs and we’ve written extensively on the subject in his biography.

Inscribed, housed in a later frame and glazed.

We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer.

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.

During the 18th century, British landscape artists frequently used monochrome washes, combining ink or watercolour in varying tones of sepia or grey to capture light, shade, and atmospheric effects in countryside scenery.

Georgian artists primarily used handmade rag paper, natural earth pigments, iron gall ink, and graphite, framed behind glass with carved or moulded wooden frames.

Authenticity can be assessed through the presence of laid or woven paper watermarks, natural age toning, foxing patterns, period inscriptions, and provenance records.

A monochrome landscape painting functions effectively when displayed alongside understated contemporary decor, grouped in a gallery wall, or hung above a wooden sideboard to create visual contrast.

Works on paper must be kept away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity, protected behind UV-filtering glass using conservation-grade acid-free mounting materials.
