Although A.Y. Nutt is primarily known for being an architect at Windsor Castle, he was also a keen and capable water-colourist, capturing many of Windsor’s landscapes and landmarks with his brush strokes. In this picture, Nutt has painted the village of Clewer in the evening twilight. St Andrew’s Church, which is of Norman construction, can be seen in the background of the painting; and large, tapered haystacks can be seen on the left hand side. I wonder if Monet’s iconic Haystack series inspired Nutt here?Categorised under: Art and Prints
