This beautiful late 19th-century watercolour by British artist Lily Bristow (1864-1935) depicts a picturesque autumnal view.

The crunch of Autumn peppers a winding track as windswept trees lean, partially bereft. Golden tones and tinted foliage enlivened with a brilliant sky. The light, bright enough to squint, radiating into a distant haze.

Bristow was a remarkable woman. Determined, fearless and pioneering. Not only did she forge a noteworthy artistic career, exhibiting at the Royal Academy, but also became a record-breaking mountaineer.

Read her story.

This is a fine example of her work. The use of colour, rhythm and expression perfectly capturing her unique and boundless personality.

Conservation & History

We care profoundly about our role as custodians and every piece in the collection has been assessed by our conservator. When required, we undertake professional restoration carefully using reversible techniques and adopt a light touch to retain the aged charm of each work. We also often restore frames rather than replace them as many are original and selected by the artists themselves.
