* Items which are presented in frames are usually the old original frames which came with the artwork. We would typically only remove the frames if they were severely broken or damaged.

When we value and sell artwork, we provide the frame free. We do not accept liability for damage caused to frame in transit. We are more than happy to remove frames before posting at the customer’s request.

This original mid-20th-century watercolour painting depicts the Yorkshire Dales village of Appletreewick with stone cottages and rolling hills, signed by the artist Jack Rigg. The composition employs a palette of warm brown, ochre, and slate blue watercolour on paper, capturing a village street scene under a cloudy sky. The artwork is presented within a wooden frame with mitred corners and a narrow inner gold-tone moulding, showing light yellowing towards the top edge in line with its age. The entire piece measures 46 cm high, 64 cm wide, and 2 cm deep. Traditional English country house interiors provide a fitting setting for display, suiting placement above a sideboard in a living room, hallway, or study. The neutral tones of the paper and warm timber surround allow integration into various wall spaces where regional British landscape art is appreciated.

FAQs

Mid-20th-century British landscape watercolours typically focus on regional rural topography, architectural realism, and atmospheric outdoor light. Artists employed translucent layering techniques to capture the natural hues and features of the countryside.

These artworks feature water-based pigments painted on heavy cotton rag or wood-pulp paper. Frames from this era generally utilise timber mouldings, often paired with inner gilded slips and protective glass panels.

Authentic pieces frequently display a legible artist signature, age-appropriate paper darkening or subtle foxing, and original period backing materials. Examining the brushwork and paper texture under magnification helps confirm hand-painted provenance.

A classic landscape painting can be placed within a gallery wall alongside contemporary prints or positioned above natural wood furniture. The neutral earth tones integrate well into modern rustic and traditional schemes alike.

To protect against fading and discolouration, display watercolours away from direct sunlight and high-humidity areas. Use acid-free mounting boards and UV-filtering glass when re-framing to maintain original condition.
