This large-scale mid-century oil painting on board by Evelyn Harris dates from circa 1950 and depicts a timber yard and canal barges along Regent's Canal. Rendered in a muted palette of greys and browns with thick impasto brushwork, the artwork is set within its original wooden frame featuring a simple moulding, and includes an additional backboard, a James Bourlet & Son label verso, The Lord Mayor's Art Award, and the remains of a numbered exhibition label on the front. Measuring 75.5 cm by 105 cm, the piece works well hung above a sideboard in a living room, dining room or hallway.

FAQs

Post-war British landscape painting from the 1950s often features muted colour palettes, architectural interest, modern industrial subjects, and expressive brushwork reflecting mid-century urban developments.

Artists during this era frequently painted using oil pigments applied directly onto rigid artist boards, masonite, or primed canvas stretched over wooden frames.

Authenticity can be assessed through period-appropriate provenance, signature details, subtle board or canvas ageing, natural varnish oxidisation, and era-specific framing techniques.

A large-scale mid-century oil painting functions well as a focal point above a sideboard or mantelpiece, complementing neutral wall tones and natural timber furniture.

Display oil paintings away from direct sunlight and extreme humidity, and dust gently with a clean, dry microfibre brush without liquid cleaners.
