Antiques & Collectibles

A watercolour drawing of children out walking in late summer is one of a collection of pictures in the Charterhouse two-day January 5 and 6 auctions. “With having been so cold recently I found myself almost transfixed on this picture with its late summer warm evening.” saidd Richard Bromell of Charterhouse. “I’ve always had huge admiration for artists as I struggle to even draw stick men properly!” The watercolour, painted by Benjamin Signmund, depicts two young girls walking home with one carrying a wooden hay rake, whilst a young boy, probably their brother, stops to pick some berries.

The watercolour is one of several pictures from a Dorset collection. Estimated at £500-£1,000 it is part of the first Charterhouse auction of 2023 on Thursday and Friday, January 5 and 6.
