Original 1897 Watercolour – Aira Force, Ullswater – Victorian Landscape, Signed Monogram, Framed

Original late-Victorian watercolour/gouache of Aira Force, Ullswater (Lake District), dated 1897 and signed with a monogram. This is not a print — it’s hand-painted, with layered washes, fine detailing, and a solitary figure on the bridge giving real depth and scale. A calm, contemplative landscape from a period when artists painted nature with seriousness and respect. ✔ Original watercolour / gouache ✔ Clearly dated 1897 ✔ Monogram signature ✔ Period frame ✔ Original framer’s label: A. Harrison & Son, Bolton ✔ Honest age, stable condition SIZE Artwork (visible opening): 15 × 21 cm Overall frame: 25.5 × 32 cm CONDITION Good antique condition overall. Light age toning as expected. The backing board shows foxing (age spotting), but the artwork itself remains stable. Frame has minor wear consistent with age. I have not cleaned or restored anything — that’s left to the buyer if desired. SHIPPING / COLLECTION Will be carefully packaged for posting, or collection welcome.
