A boat traversing a river in the Autumn
Artist: Yoshida A
Name: A boat traversing a river in the Autumn
Date: Not set
Description: This is a wonderfully vivid, yet soft watercolor of 2 people in a boat traversing a river in the Autumn. There are a couple of buildings, one on either side of the river, and ample indication of the seasonal change. This beautiful watercolour was done by an artist by the name of A. Yoshida. Contrary to popular belief, the artist is not, nor is he/she any relation to, Hiroshi Yoshida. I have seen a number of works by this artist and, beyond a doubt, this artist is a master of the technique of watercolor painting. This painting measures, with margins, 19 3/4″ wide by 13 3/8″ high. There is little or no indication of fading of the colors, no toning or matline and no foxing but the painting is backed on a piece of thin cardboard material. Perhaps a professional in painting conservation could remove it as the glue/adhesive is quite brittle. When framed, this piece would be quite a centerpiece for any room and most decor ……
