Note du spécialiste

At an early age Copley Fielding became a pupil of John Varley (see lots 1214-1217) and took up painting watercolour landscape. In 1813 he was elected a full member of the Old Water-colour Society, and in 1831 became its President. He is celebrated for his grand British landscapes, and examples of his works can be found in major institutions such as the Victoria & Albert Museum, Tate Britain and the Louvre.

For other works by the artist see lots 1198, 1203 and 1208.
