Title: Low Tide Estuary Scene with Boats and Sandbanks St Dogmaels Wales 1971
By Tony Herbert (1927-2024)
Medium: Watercolor on board, unframed
Size: 11.5 inches (height) x 14 inches (width)
Condition: good, with some signs on wear consistent with aging
Provenance: From a large private collection of this artists work, Oxford, England
Description: This tranquil 1971 watercolour by British artist Tony Herbert depicts the low tide at St Dogmaels, a small village near Cardigan in Pembrokeshire, Wales. Known for its tidal estuary, peaceful atmosphere, and sweeping views of the River Teifi, St Dogmaels has long been admired by artists and travellers alike. In this painting, the river gently curves toward the horizon, flanked by wooded banks and a few moored boats resting on exposed sandbanks.
Herbert uses soft washes of greens, browns, and muted blues to evoke the hazy, salt-aired quiet of a summer or autumn morning. The foreground is richly textured with grassy banks, leading the viewer’s eye into the distance where whitewashed buildings and trees fade into mist. The scene is peaceful and grounded, with a timeless quality that captures the daily rhythm of tide and landscape in this rural Welsh setting.
Works that depict specific place names like St Dogmaels are particularly desirable to collectors with ties to the region or an interest in historic depictions of the British coastline. Though unsigned, the painting is inscribed verso in the artist’s own hand, clearly dating it to 1971 — a period when Herbert frequently travelled and painted en plein air across the UK.
This is a beautifully observed landscape from one of Britain’s quiet coastal corners, painted with care and characteristic warmth.

Low Tide Coastal Scene Appledore Harbour Devon Watercolour Landscape 1987
Located in Cirencester, Gloucestershire
Title: Low Tide Coastal Scene Appledore Harbour Devon Watercolour Landscape 1987
By Tony Herbert (1927-2024)
Medium: Watercolor on artists paper
Size: 11 x 15 inches
Annotated Verso: “Appledore 87”
Condition: Very good; paper edges are deckled, with minimal age-related wear. Colours remain clean and fresh.
Provenance: From a large private collection of this artists work, Oxford, England
Description: A peaceful and evocative watercolour landscape by British artist Tony Herbert 1927 to 2024 titled Appledore 87. This coastal painting captures the harbour at Appledore a historic fishing village on the North Devon coast known for its wide tidal estuary and charming maritime architecture. Painted in 1987 the work features a muted palette of soft browns greys and greens reflecting the exposed seabed at low tide with delicate tonal precision.
The buildings are rendered with Herbert’s signature economy and architectural sensitivity anchoring the composition while the surrounding mudflats and distant hills suggest atmospheric stillness. The large warehouse like structure may be part of Appledore’s old shipbuilding or fishing infrastructure adding a layer of industrial charm to the otherwise tranquil setting.
This piece exemplifies Tony Herbert’s deep affinity for British coastal scenes and his lifelong dedication to plein air watercolour painting. His works are held in private collections across the UK and are increasingly sought after for their subtle charm and observational skill.
