H. EAST (fl. 1900–1920)
“Evening Glow”
A charming early 20th-century British landscape oil painting depicting a tranquil countryside scene at sunset, with a winding path leading through the foreground towards an expansive landscape beneath a softly glowing evening sky.
The painting has a particularly atmospheric quality, with warm evening light illuminating the distant horizon and carefully painted trees, vegetation and water in the foreground.
The work is signed “H. EAST” lower right and titled “Evening Glow” to the mount below the painting.
Presented in a highly decorative ornate giltwood frame with elaborate floral and foliate decoration, which complements the traditional landscape beautifully.
