Title: Anthony Herbert; French Street Scene with Bar La Coquille Normandy Style Townhouse Watercolour, 1985 Description: Title: Canal Boats by Boveney Lock Windsor in Summer Light Watercolour 1995 By Tony Herbert (1927-2024) Medium: Watercolor on paper, unframed Size: 11 inches (height) x 15 inches (width) Condition: good, will some signs on wear consistent with aging Provenance: From a large private collection of this artists work, Oxford, England Description: This tranquil watercolour captures a quiet moment by Boveney Lock in Windsor, dated August 1995. The scene features a row of canal boats moored alongside a narrow towpath, with a distinctive brick lock-keeper’s house and arch in the background. The artist renders the water and foliage with soft, atmospheric brushwork, evoking the hazy light of an English summer’s day. In the foreground, textured grasses and earthy tones create a sense of movement and depth, while the boats—one with a vivid blue tarpaulin—anchor the composition with a strong sense of place. Paintings of Windsor and the Thames have long appealed to collectors for their combination of historic charm and natural beauty. This piece blends architectural interest with a love of the English landscape, making it an ideal artwork for anyone drawn to canalside scenes, boat life, or riverside tranquility.
