Brave Fine Art has dated this Antique Watermill Drawing to the 1870s.
De Poix was a gentleman artist descended from French nobility.
For a number of years he exhibited at the wonderfully named ‘Woodpecker Sketch Club’, which later became the Worcester City and County Fine Arts Association.
Here, he’s added a further dimension by heightening the figures in white, which draws the eye. Beyond them, the view extends for miles, culminating in misty hills and a church spire.
Glazed and framed.
