Charles Robertson Art

British, 1844-1891

Charles Robertson painted a handful of views around the South coast of England, including Dartmouth, Alum Bay and North Devon. Robertson was a painter of landscapes and genre scenes, both in oil and watercolor, and also an engraver. Robertson began by studying art in London and in the early 1860’s left to travel Europe and the Middle East. Robertson is best known for his watercolors of the Middle East, which are richly detailed and vibrant. Robertson’s paintings can be seen in the Walker Art Gallery and the National Gallery, Sydney; while the National Trust holds another pleasant seascape from Robertson entitled Shipping off Bayard's Cove, Dartmouth.

Trees in a French Country Landscape. Watercolor.
Located in Cotignac, FR
A French watercolour on paper landscape by Roger Decaux. The work is signed and dated (as yet undeciphered) bottom right. Presented in a wood frame with cut card mount. A fresh and charming view of trees in a landscape. Decaux has used simple, fluid but strong strokes for this composition. One can feel the influence of 'abstraction of form' that was a part of his later work. The eye is drawn from the trees to the surrounding fields, the touches of colour to the right and then to the silhouette of the hills beyond. The use of watercolour at its best. Roger DECAUX was born in 1919 in Dombasle sur Meurthe in the Lorraine. He studied art in Paris with Gino Severini and Jan Brusselmans...
