Vint. 20th Cent. (1970) original painting by listed artist Bill Offord
$175
SHIPPING OFFERED
Offered for sale is this vintage 20th Century original mixed media painting by listed English/Australian artist William (Bill) Offord and dating from 1970. Born in England in 1944 and migrating in 1967, Bill has worked in both painting and sculpture over a 50 year artistic career. His ouvre has focused primarily on images of rural life and historical subjects across the Eastern States of Australia. This particular piece has had an interesting history, apparently being sold and taken to England - where it was framed by C W Atwell of London (134 High Street Wandsworth, SW18 4JP). Then at some point it’s made its way back to Australia!
This enjoyable work depicts a bearded blacksmith hard at work in their forge. There’s some attractive golden light which casts long shadows, creating a contrasting atmosphere with the illuminated figure surrounded by tools of their trade and hammering at the anvil.
A great gift for any blacksmith, lover of history or Lost Trades.
In very good original condition.
Measures 33cm (w) x 48cm (h) approximately.
Please check the pictures as they form part of the item description.
Cash or direct deposit sale only. Can freight at buyers expense (must include insurance for damage or loss) or can personally deliver to Macedon Ranges, Melbourne, Geelong or Ballarat CBD’s for a fee. Where possible (or upon request) a physical inspection is available and always encouraged.
