Wiltshire

Note from the Artist: South Wraxall is a superb medieval and later manor house, with component parts from
different periods, all of the highest quality. It is constructed round three sides of a courtyard, and despite having
a gatehouse it was not fortified in any serious way. The house is privately owned and not open to the public.
This painting is one of three commissioned by a former owner. |

Note from the Artist: Carisbrooke Castle is in the Isle of Wight and is in the care of English Heritage. It is a medieval
castle built on top of a Saxon burh. Although partly ruined it is interesting both historically and visually, and over the
last three centuries it has frequently been drawn, particularly the gatehouse. |

Laugharne Estuary
Artist's Catalogue No: 1048
Watercolour & gouache
on paper
Image size 47.0 x 66.0 cms
Sold
|
|
Note from the Artist: The town of Laugharne is beautifully situated on the estuary of the River Taf in South Wales. It grew up round
a castle but is now probably best known as the place where Dylan Thomas wrote Under Milk Wood. Unusually for me I turned my
back on the castle, which was right behind where I was standing, and looked out to the south-east down the estuary. |
