About the Item
19th century English forest landscape with figures by a fireside, mid-afternoon.
A very well painted classic Victorian English landscape with figures. Wonderful observation by the painter of a scene with subtle light and amazing detail throughout the piece. Look at the man seated on the left smoking a clay pipe, you can even see the smoke coming up from it.
The quality of the trees is very similar to the work of Frederick William Hulme and William Shayer, both very fine English landscape and genre painters.
Bennett seems to have been a landscape painter working in the middle of the 19th-century and he may well have been influenced by one of these painters' art.
This is the quality of the finest Victorian landscape painters and would be a great addition to any collection.
It is an oil on canvas and has recently been cleaned and re-framed.
The piece is signed and inscribed on the reverse.

- Antique 19th century English Victorian Waterfall scene landscapeBy John Brandon SmithLocated in Woodbury, CTJohn Brandon Smith, John Brandon Smith is an English landscape artist of some renown. He concentrated on the waterways of England, Scotland and Wales. He was particularly interested in the effects of cascading water. This led to his being given the moniker 'Waterfall Smith'. He was fascinated by the spectacle of rivers in spate. Many of his paintings concentrated on the rivers Conway, Llugwy and Lledr in North Wales but he also painted the rivers of England and Scotland. Some of his more celebrated works show The Swallow Falls and Aysgarth Falls in North Yorkshire. He used many shades of green and blue on his small, jewel-like canvases. He would occasionally introduce the figure of a fisherman to provide perspective. His themes are characteristic of the Renaissance of the European Romantic Movement. He exhibited twenty-two works at The Royal Academy between 1860 and 1874. He also exhibited at Suffolk Street. This is a very rare large example of the painters work.
