Kenneth Jack \u201cA Country Road\u201d Original Watercolour, 1943<\/p>\n

A Country Road is an early original watercolour on paper by Australian artist Kenneth Jack (1924\u20132006), signed and dated 43 at the lower right. The title and a circa 1943 date are also recorded on the frame backing.<\/p>\n

Tall gum trees lead the eye along an ochre country road towards a small cottage and softly washed distant hills. Its restrained green and earth tones give this rural scene a quiet, spacious character, suited to a collection of Australian landscapes or a thoughtful gift for an admirer of works on paper.<\/p>\n
