Prometheus Antiques

Description

An interesting oil on canvas landscape by the artist Maud Raphael Jones 1863-1935. A typically tranquil view which shows a lake in a wooded valley, it is well observed and painted, I particularly like the work on the willow tree in the foreground, creating the hazy view through the thin, pointed leaves. The piece is in excellent untouched condition, signed to the lower left and dated 1912. Maud Raphael Jones 1853-1935 was a Bradford born artist and actually a man, his name came about after his father drinking with friends engaged in a bet as to whether he would call his son Maud, which he duly did. He was a self-taught artist who originally worked as a painter and decorator but he became a member of the Arcadian Art Club in the city and his talent blossomed. He exhibited at every major gallery including 22 works at the Royal Academy. This is a fine example of his landscape work and is framed in the original simple gilt frame which is in excellent condition.
Overall sizes in inches including frame: 17 ½ by 13 ½
