| Two wonderfully executed watercolor paintings by listed artist, George Harlow White, 1817-1888. This watercolor is c.1857. On the back of the painting of the farmhouse the artist wrote in pen, "Askham Richard, York 1857, G. Harlow White". Each measures approximately 3 1/4" x 5" WITHOUT the frame and matting. WITH the frame and matting they measure 7 1/2" x 9 1/4". One painting depicts a thatched roof farmhouse. There are two women. One is standing in the doorway while the other is working outside. There are chickens in the foreground. The other shows a person sitting at the base of a hill. They are not signed on the front. The first picture that I described is signed on the back, G. Harlow White. George Harlow White was a member of the RCA. He also painted in England. Askam Richard is a parish in York, England, that hasn't changed much since the 18th century. Of the farmhouses and cottages around the green, five are listed buildings, mostly 18th century. By 1931 the population was still a modest 181, and Askham Richard has continued to avoid the expansion seen in many other villages. Very good condition. | ||||||||
