Another Great Auction from Doncaster Auction Centre, including Jewellery, Collectibles, Vintage, Retro, A Real Eclectic Mix
A framed, likely mid-20th century, impressionistic or post-impressionistic Oil Painting, depicting three figures, possibly children, viewed from behind, seated in a rugged, earthy landscape overlooking a distant horizon under a cloudy sky. The artwork features visible brushwork and a muted palette of browns, greens, blues, and whites, with a touch of red on one figure. It is presented in a wooden frame with a visible grain, comprising a natural wood outer edge and a lighter inner liner. The reverse features a paperboard backing with a string and wire hanger, and two labels. One handwritten note indicates “2000 – Merry-go-round” as a potential title or inventory number, an artist’s location as “JN. ST. LEONARDS.ON.SEA, Hasting – E. Sussex,” and a historical price of “30/s” (30 shillings), suggesting a creation or sale date prior to 1971. A printed label identifies “PHILIP P. BLACHLEY” of St. Leonards-on-Sea as a restorer/framer.
Overall framed dimensions: 20 x 17 inches
