Robert Tavener (1920 – 2004)
Lansdown Parade, Cheltenham
Watercolour and pen
38 x 46 cm
Signed lower right.
The thin watercolour wash of the lawns and the fine ink pen expression of the college’s architecture create a contrast between the natural and the man-made in this picture by Tavener. He painted several views of the city of Cheltenham and its architectural landmarks, including of Cheltenham College (this picture is available here).
Condition: generally very good.
