Description
Landscape, colourful rolling foothills in the forground. - in the immediate forground at the bl. is a spot of green brown grasses. - past that is a varying green plateau. - then a spot of trees onward to the purple/blue mountains in the distance. - the sky fades into a yellow to green shade.“Collings typically restricted his darkest tones in this late watercolour to minimal accents -- a streak of rich sienna merging with deep blue which works as a ‘base line’ and his the key to colour relationships in the rest of his picture. The overall pastel tones and broad, open river valley view combine to produce an effect of silent and awesome beauty.” -- “Charles John Collings, 1848-1931” Catalogue Raisonne by Linda Heath

Description
Landscape scene of the foothills with a marshy area in the foreground with some tall brown/green grasses in the foreground right. - blue marshy area, then behind yellow/green foothills, a few clouds blowing across the horizon, and blue sky.“Collings was experimenting with floated and mingled colours over wide portions of this painting. The paper was too soft for this technique and ‘rubbed’ in the centre right section. Bright yellow chalk, applied on top of the dry paint, appears from a distance as a sunlight strip which counter-balances large, light hills in the top half of the scene.” -- “Charles John Collings, 1848-1931” Catalogue Raisonne by Linda Heath
