Edmund Aubrey Hunt RBA, Landscape With Lake & Boats

Edmund Aubrey Hunt RBA, Landscape With Lake & BoatsThis calming late 19th century oil painting by American artist Edmund Aubrey Hunt RBA (1855 1922) depicts a picturesque landscape with a lake and boats. A quiet stretch of water is bordered by low grassy banks beneath an ample sky filled with passing clouds. These appear to drift across the scene, allowing light to fall unevenly across the landscape below. Hunt has used soft greys, pale blues and warm highlights to describe shifting weather conditions
