Original Watercolour ‘Evening At Westleton’ Suffolk By Martin Hardie 31/08/1939
I love 💕 this watercolour, titled Evening at Westleton in Suffolk, by Martin Hardie and what’s so special is that he finished it on the 31st August 1939 and dashed home because of the international crisis concerning Hitler and next day we were at war. (Label verso on frame and picture itself)
