Robert T Stuart, River Landscape, Evening Mood A Shelf While the seated Anne wearsThis evocative mid 19th century oil painting by Robert T Stuart (XIX) depicts a picturesque river landscape illuminated by a setting sun. A silhouetted wood stands before a majestic glow as the placid river beams. Distant buildings are rendered with a few deft marks and careful observation. Its a tranquil image capturing nature at her most enchanting. Little is known about Robert T Stuart aside from numerous auction records in the US, France and UK.
