Description: A peaceful watercolour village scene by British artist Tony Herbert (1927–2024), depicting the historic coastal village of Bosham in West Sussex. Painted in the 1970s, this atmospheric work captures the charming waterfront architecture of Bosham, including its distinctive Saxon church tower and red-brick cottages framed by leafy trees. The quiet drama of a cloudy sky is reflected in the cool tones of the harbour waters, where several brightly coloured rowing boats float in the shallows — their reds and blues providing lively contrast to the otherwise soft, muted palette.
Bosham is one of the oldest and most picturesque villages on the south coast of England, known for its links to King Canute and the Bayeux Tapestry. With its sailing heritage and timeless views, it has long been a source of inspiration for artists. Herbert’s interpretation leans into the quiet nostalgia of the scene, painted with expressive brushwork and his signature tonal restraint.
This piece would appeal to collectors of British coastal art, West Sussex landscapes, and mid-century English watercolours. It is ideal for display in a relaxed interior or as part of a themed gallery wall celebrating historic maritime villages.
