Oil on Canvas "Ludford Bridge" Arthur Netherwood (1864-1930)

1900 - 1920
For Sale by AJD Antiques
Description

This is a large oil on canvas of Ludford Bridge on the Teme river at Ludlow.

It was painted at the beginning of the 20th century by Arthur Netherwood who had a studio in a building that sat above the Horseshoe Weir that is downstream of the bridge. The tree in the foreground still sits on a small island in the river where there used to be a ford before the bridge was built in the 16th century.

The picture has just been cleaned, as has the frame, which is original, so both are in excellent condition.

As a point of interest (and not for sale) the last picture is the original brass name plate from the studio that used to stand below the bridge.

Size:

Picture - 27.5" x 38.75" (70 x 99cms)

Frame - 38" x 49.5" (96.5 x 126cms)

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.

Late 19th and early 20th-century British landscape paintings typically focused on realistic or Impressionist-influenced depictions of regional scenery, capturing natural light and rural architecture. Artists often painted en plein air, recording British rivers, villages, and countryside scenes using oil on canvas.

Artists utilised oil paints on stretched linen or cotton canvas, often mounted on wooden stretchers. Frames were typically crafted from softwood or composition material, gilded with gold leaf over a bole base to create a reflective finish.

Authentic period paintings generally feature artist signatures in oil paint, age-appropriate craquelure across the canvas surface, and natural darkening or yellowing of varnish. Examining the reverse side often reveals original wooden stretchers, aged canvas, and period framing hardware.

Hang the framed landscape as a focal point above a mantelpiece or console table to blend classic heritage with modern decor. Pair the warm tones of gilded frames with contemporary neutral walls or dark paint palettes for balanced visual contrast.

Keep the artwork away from direct sunlight, extreme humidity, and heat sources to prevent canvas warping and paint flaking. Lightly dust the frame with a soft dry brush, and consult a qualified conservator for removing aged yellowed varnish or surface dirt.
