 Notes

A highly accomplished original oil painting on canvas by English landscape painter of Highland scenes Frank Hider.  The warm, bright colours and composition is very much in the style made popular by Alfred de Breanski and his son. The Victorian hankering for Scotland has never disappeared, and Hider pleasingly evokes the mountains and lochs north of the border, the lighting and colours are especially pleasing and this is a particularly atmospheric example of Hider's work.  The painting is signed lower right and inscribed verso.  A very fine work that would grace any home or collection. Housed in a lovely gilt frame. These paintings by frank hider are highly collectible.
