Edward King (1863-?)
oil on canvas
Cattle in a river landscape
signed
17.5 x 35.5in.
Estimate £500-700
Oil on canvas which has been cleaned and relined within the past 10 years or so, canvas has a very slight outward bulge, paint is thickly applied with a fair degree of impasto showing throughout the work, some fine lines of stable craquelure particularly in the grey of the clouds, housed in what looks to the original giltwood and gesso frame which is equally in good order, old framers label verso.
This will be fairly expensive to ship abroad as the work and the frame are both delicate and fairly heavy.
