Up for sale is a wonderful antique mid 19th century English watercolor depicting a beautiful gothic stone church viewed from the river looking over docks and a small town. Executed in watercolor the artist accented particular portions with white gouache as seen in the water and smoke coming from the chimneys. While the work is unsigned it is dated in the gable of the boat dock as seen "1846" and in overall excellent condition with some expected minimal discoloration. Well preserved all around in its thin wood frame measuring 19.5 x 15.75 while the watercolor measures 13.5 x 8.75 inches. The composition is charming and relaxing and looks excellent when hung on the wall.
