Paul Sandby, RA,
British 1730/31-1809-
View of a village church, with figures conversing on the street;
pen, black ink, and wash on paper, signed 'P. Sandby' (lower right), 15.7 x 21.8 cm.
Provenance:
Private Collection, UK.
Note:
Sandby was a prominent and influential landscape watercolourist who became one of the founding members of the Royal Academy in 1768. The present work is a classic example of Sandby's approach, defined by a simplicity and clarity of line which befits his peaceful compositions depicting quiet, typically rural, surroundings occupied only by a few diminutive figures.
