Description
Man Walking by James Lawrence Isherwood
A fabulous and unusual original oil on board painting by the late Wigan artist James Lawrence Isherwood, known as Jim to those around him. This particular example unsually depicts a solitary figure striding across the composition with the suggestion of another figure and the silhouettes of church steeples or mills in the background. With a wonderful use of colour, Isherwood’s exquisite wet on wet technique is on show upon close inspection of this fabulous artwork.
Painted on hardboard as was generally the case with Isherwood, this particular painting is signed by Isherwood and and also bears it’s original numbered exhibition label from one of the Isherwood families official sales at Wigan Town Hall.
