Sir Alfred East, R.A., R.I., P.R.B.A., R.P.E. (1844-1913)

The present landscape, which must date to c. 1908, can be placed in the sequence of works produced at East’s Cotswold studio at Upper Swell, on the outskirts of Stow-on-the-Wold. Its configuration of stone walls and barns makes it directly comparable to the more finished On the Tewkesbury Road (Detroit Institute of Arts). KMc.
