John White, RBA RI,
British 1851-1933-
A woman on a coastal path, looking out to sea;
watercolour heightened with white on paper, signed 'J. White R.I.' (lower right), 27.2 x 45 cm.
Provenance:
Property from the estate of the late David Cornwell, best known as the author John le Carré.
Note:
After spending some of his childhood years in Australia, where he moved with his family in 1856, John White returned to his native Scotland, studying at the Royal Scottish Academy Schools from 1871. Later in his life, White settled in Devon, where he was prolific in his production of bucolic watercolours depicting picturesque fishing villages and sweeping coastal landscapes, much like the present work.
