I specialise in affordable original artworks - mainly traditional watercolours and oil paintings but I also have a range of contemporary artworks including limited edition lithographic prints. I also stock a limited selection of antiques and collectables, including treen, ceramics and glass. I have now opened a shop at 26 High St Wallingford (OX100BU) between Reading and Oxford, but I also trade online. My website, www.artandstuffgallery.com has a gallery section with several mini-galleries where my items are displayed, including more contemporary items not shown on LoveAntiques.

Description
Myles Birket Foster Rws (1825-1899) was a hugely popular British illustrator, watercolourist and engraver of the Victorian period. The Times' obituary described him as "certainly the most popular water-colour artist of our time". He started out as a wood engraver, working on illustrations for Punch and Illustrated London News, and then taught himself to paint in watercolours in the 1850s, being elected to the Royal Society of Watercolour Artists in 1862. He was friends with Pre-Raphaelite artists, such as William Morris and Edward Burne-Jones. This charming etching is called "The Goose Girl" (after a painting by Frederick Walker 1840-75) and shows a girl driving a flock of geese through a village. Some sources suggest the village is Cookham. The information on the back of the frame suggests a title of "At the Ford" but this seems to be incorrect. Signed by the artist lower right and with stamp of fox lower left.
