About the Item

A gloomy and deeply atmospheric watercolour scene in sepia tones showing and elderly, ragged man testing the water in front of him with his stick. A brooding sky and stark branches of a dead tree add a sense of impending doom and foreboding. The artist has signed to the lower right hand corner. The painting is presented in a glazed, dark wood frame with a brown mount. On watercolour paper.
