Lovely and bright hillside landscape by William Horsbrugh-Porter RHA (Irish, 1905-1985). Several aspens and other trees are showing lovely fall foliage, nestled on the side of a rocky hill. A path runs along the bottom of the composition. There is some impasto to the brushwork, adding texture and depth to the piece.

Signed and dated "Horsbrugh 26" in the lower right corner.

William Eric Horsbrugh-Porter (Irish, 1905-1985), a native of Dalkey Co. Dublin, attended the Dublin Metropolitan School of Art before continuing his education at the renowned Slade School, London, where he held both the Slade Scholarship and the Robert Ross Scholarship. In 1928 he collaborated with his friend, the London born artist Stephen Bone, painting murals for Piccadilly Underground.

From 1926 to 1974 he showed more than forty works at the Royal Hibernian Academy, including Wild Roses in 1972, his second penultimate exhibition in the RHA prior to his death in 1985.
