James Charles (British 1851-1906) Cows in a meadow landscapeOil on canvasSigned lower left43 x 58cm (16¾ x 22¾ in.)It has been suggested that this painting is comparable in character to several of James Charles' works painted during his visits to Montreuil-sur-Mer and La Madeleine, Pas de Calais, in the spring/summer of 1902 and 1904 - where the Poplars were as tall and slender and the surrounding meadows as flat. The lie of the land is also remarkably similar to that of a work known as 'At Montreuil'.Condition Report: Light surface dirt and varnish throughout causing some discolouration. Paint splatters/pools of varnish scattered across the canvas, very minimal. Patches of craquelure scattered throughout. Inspection under UV reveals no obvious evidence of restoration or repair.
