Florence Hess "Woodhouse Moor Feast" Watercolour

1940 - 1960
Description

Florence Hess (1891-1974) was a painter of landscapes and still life, born in Leeds. She studied at Leeds School of Art and from 1905 with the Yorkshire painter Mark Senior, whose friend and assistant she became, accompanying him on his visits to Bruges and Holland. She painted along the coast of Yorkshire and Norfolk, her earlier work showing Senior’s influence especially. Exhibited RA, NEAC, WIAC and widely in the provinces. Was a keen member of Fylingdales Group. Lived in London for some time and at Alwoodley, near Leeds.

The present painting "Woodhouse Moor Feast" is a watercolour measuring 10"x 14". It is unsigned, is inscribed on the back with title and artist's name, and is framed giving an overall size of 20"x 24". A charming historically interesting painting with lovely unfaded colour.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. 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. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

Early 20th-century British watercolours frequently combine traditional topographical depiction with impressionistic brushwork, capturing light, atmospheric weather, and social gatherings on paper.

Artists typically used lightfast water-based pigments bound with gum arabic, applied directly to thick cotton rag paper or wood-pulp supports.

Authentic pieces exhibit translucent paint layering, natural paper age toning or foxing, handwritten inscriptions or signatures, and a lack of mechanical print dot matrixes.

Frame the painting in a sleek, minimalist frame with a broad acid-free mount to create contrast, hanging it on a gallery wall or leaning it on a console table.

Store and display watercolours away from direct sunlight behind UV-filtering glass, ensuring conservation-grade mounting and consistent indoor humidity levels.
