Joseph Barnard Davis

An atmospheric original oil painting on canvas depicting cattle grazing near rustic farm buildings, surrounded by mature trees beneath a softly painted cloudy sky.

The painting is signed in the lower-right corner and is presented in a substantial, highly decorative gilt frame featuring raised floral and scrolling ornamentation.

The muted greens, browns and warm ochre tones create a traditional pastoral scene with an appealing antique character. A decorative country-house piece suitable for collectors of British landscape paintings, rural art and animal subjects.
