This was my Christmas present. "March Hare" by William Goddard. The colour representation here does not do it credit. The inner mount is a pale heather colour to compliment the purple flowers - and the alium flowers of the curtains - and in the spring the 100 alium bulbs which will flower opposite the window. I have admired this picture for a few months - bought from The Stables gallery in Thornton-le-Dale.
The gallery couldn't tell me anything about the artist as it was bought by the previous owner - all we know is William Goddard has a Sheffield connection - so my research continues....so far despite endless google searches I have zero results!
This concludes the current ABC Wednesday round - next week brings Round 16!

Oh dear, sorry Denise, I didn't read your comment until I returned from hospital. We did manage to go up to the ward and see a friend who had been in for ten days and that cheered him up no end. But thanks for the idea.
ReplyDeleteI really love this painting, Denise. It is very realistic and the hare has character.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely not the Easter bunny, but a great picture.
ReplyDeleteI like getting art as present.
ReplyDeleteFRANKLY MY DEAR
Oh that's your present not the previous one. Well that's lovely too.
