H. Anthony Dyer (1872-1943). Caudebec-en-Caux, France. Watercolor. Sigened & titled lower left. Dimensions: 14 1/2" x 10 1/2". Framed under glass. In 1906, Dyer sought European travel for subject matter that inspired new paintings that made for the core of his exhibitions back home in Providence at the Providence Art Club and Tilden and Thurber gallery later that year. Caudebec is a preserved medieval town in Normandy. Dyer wrote “Caudebec, is the most charmingly quaint and picturesque town in all Europe. Picture to yourself a town in the 20th century where the matters, customs and houses are still almost mediaeval: rushing streams of water flow underneath dark, mysterious Norman buildings, and where age have given to the whole town a glorious greening gray tone”.

Good.
