by John Steane (b.1931)

Description:
A charming and characterful watercolour capturing a lively summer scene on the green in Evesham, a historic market town in Worcestershire, England. In the background rises the impressive Gothic tower of Evesham Abbey, rendered with beautiful detail and golden ochre tones. The foreground features a paved pathway where two figures stand in quiet conversation, observing the bustle of families, couples, and solo visitors enjoying the rolling grassy park. The painting is filled with movement and narrative—children play, friends gather in small clusters, and shaded trees sway gently under a streaked summer sky.
John Steane’s work often captures everyday English life with affection and clarity, and this scene exemplifies his skill for composition and atmosphere. The loosely handled figures, dynamic layout, and quintessentially British setting make this an evocative piece for lovers of English landscapes, social scenes, and historic town views.
Evesham itself is steeped in history, known for its abbey (founded in the 8th century) and the site of the 1265 Battle of Evesham. This painting offers a peaceful, contemporary contrast—a timeless snapshot of a town green filled with life and sunshine.
Ideal for collectors of 20th-century British watercolours, this unsigned work remains a testament to Steane’s sensitive observational eye.
