I am offering for auction an impressive and charming late 19th or early 20th century oil on canvas of figures with horses on a village track. A delightful painting by listed artist James Walter Gozzard, 1862-1926. Signed bottom left. The painting measures 46 x 35.5 cm. The frame is 59 x 48.5 cm. Condition of the painting is good. Please view all photos for accurate condition. Frame has a small piece of gesso missing top right. Ready to hang. James Walter Gozzard (1862-1926), aka JW Gozzard, was a prolific British genre and figure painter. He was “best known for his charming depictions in watercolour and oils of quaint scenes of the English countryside and villages.” Gozzard “favoured simple landscapes, often with depictions of people going about their daily routines. Please note. Due to the fragile nature of old frames and glass, our shippers do not provide insurance for any damage caused during transit. We go to great lengths to ensure each painting is packed and protected to a very high standard but sadly cannot compensate or refund for any damage occurring to frames or glass during transit. Therefore the frame and any glass is a gift to you with zero value and you are bidding on the artwork only. Due to Brexit, there are delays at EU customs borders though the situation is improving. Please do not blame me for delays or any customs duty payable. I really appreciate your understanding and patience. Steve.
