British School, Late 19th or Early 20th Century, Still Life of Grapes and Peaches, Water Colour and Gouache
Description
This still life of fruit is executed in water colour with gouache highlights on paper. The composition features a naturalistic arrangement of red, white, and purple grapes alongside peaches, set against a textured mossy ground. The style is characteristic of late 19th or early 20th-century British still-life painting, specifically resembling the fruit subjects popularised by artists such as William Henry Hunt. No signature or date is visible on the face of the work. The painting is presented in a substantial multi-layered frame comprising a wide oak outer moulding, a gilded scrolling foliate inner slip, and a green mat.
