Specialist note


The iconography of Daffodils is typical of Harvey's work from 1908-1915 with its meadow setting and fresh plein air feel. Harvey exhibited a number of works called Daffodils, although the present painting is larger than the 1917 and 1927 versions. The dimensions correspond to a picture of the same title that was sold at Debenham Coe in 1972.
