St John’s College, Cambridge

Watercolour

30 x 47 cm

John Stanton Ward CBE was an English portrait artist, landscape painter and illustrator. This view of St John’s highlights the dreamlike quality of the college and its city. Ward depicts Cambridge on a winter afternoon; the trees are bare, and the afternoon sun sets gently over the city’s lawns and high spires.

Condition: very good.
