Oil on board signed by J. S. Atherton H 18 x W 24 inches framed (H 12 x W 18 inches unframed) In Duddon Estuary, John Smith Atherton (1877–1943) captures the atmospheric tranquilit y of the Cumbrian coastline with a masterful touch. This vintage landscape, often rendered in oil on board, highlights the artist's ability to balance soft, sweeping horizons with the structural details of the estuary's unique tidal terrain. As a frequent exhibitor at the Royal Academy and Royal Scottish Academy, Atherton’s work is prized for its classic 20th-century British naturalism, making it a sophisticated addition to any collection of vintage landscape art.
