Original 19th Century Watercolour of a Welsh Mountain River Scene by William Bidwell Henley
A beautiful original 19th-century watercolour landscape by William Bidwell Henley (born circa 1823, Somerset), an English artist known for his finely detailed and atmospheric scenes.
This evocative work captures a tranquil Welsh mountain valley, with a winding river flowing through rugged hills and distant peaks bathed in soft light. It is likely set in North Wales, possibly the Conwy area, given the topography and composition.
The painting showcases Henley’s delicate brushwork and mastery of natural light — hallmarks of mid-19th century British landscape art.
