Original signed and framed Watercolour of Sherwood Forest by Joseph Needham 1880 32x28cm frame

A talented landscape painter and printmaker. His subjects include panoramic landscapes, architectural views, naval and military subjects. He lived and worked in London for Day & Son a major British lithographic firm

A very finely painted 19th century English watercolour by the well listed artist Joseph Needham (c.1810-1880). The scene depicts an old woodland landscape. The fine brushstrokes and panoramic composition is typical of Needham's painterly style. It is clear the artist felt a deep connection with the British landscape in this romantic view of the English countryside.

Painting is in excellent condition- We have had it out to inspect and on the reverse of the paper it's painted on is written in pencil 'Sherwood Forest' 

Frame has had a knock or two but looks to be the original frame of this period
