Art measures 7 x 5 inches
Frame measures 12 x 10 inches
This intimate original landscape by acclaimed contemporary British artist Angela Wakefield captures the tranquil beauty of Haweswater Reservoir in England’s Lake District National Park. Painted in oil with expressive, understated brushwork, the composition evokes the quiet atmosphere of one of Cumbria’s most remote and unspoilt valleys.
Soft blue waters wind gently through rolling fells beneath an expansive sky, while rich earthy foreground tones of russet, ochre and olive create warmth and depth. Despite its small scale, the painting possesses a remarkable sense of distance and serenity, inviting the viewer into the timeless landscape.
Presented in a substantial hand-finished painted wooden frame, the work combines the intimacy of a miniature painting with a striking wall presence, making it equally suited to a gallery wall, bookshelf, study or contemporary interior.
Angela Wakefield’s landscapes are held in private collections internationally and are admired for their distinctive balance of atmosphere, colour and understated realism. Miniature originals such as this are highly collectible, offering an accessible opportunity to acquire an authentic work by the artist.
