DOUGLAS PITTUCK RIEVAULX ABBEY MONOCHROME WATERCOLOUR

Rievaulx Abbey

Monochrome watercolour

520 x 610 mm

Giltwood frame

Signed Douglas Pittuck 1973

Exhibited at the  Douglas Pittuck Exhibition 11th -13th June St Marys Parish Hall Barnard Castle

This work again underlines Pittuck’s versatility as a technical artist and as a draughtsman.  The converging lines of the fence are introduced to enhance depth and perspective, offering a clever invitation to explore. The figures emphasise the towering scale.  With no embellishments to the sky and non-descript foreground, the Abbey, rising to the top of the frame is dominant.  The viewer is left in no doubt to the majesty and significance of the building
