Is This A Real Rowland Hilder Oil Painting Size 50 Cm X 33 Cm?

The only reference I can locate to this painting is on the album cover of English Songs by John Ireland.

Hi Fueller;

Perhaps this site may be able to help with dating the frame. There is a forum Framer to Framer listed on the left.

Interesting thought, thanks Eirene.

BTW, for the regulars who may be interested, I have been out of town (Philadelphia) for a few days and won't be back home until next week. Therefore I won't be participating as much as usual and it may take longer to get posts/threads approved.

...And when I do get a chance to catch up, the posts may all appear at once in a mini-flood. Sorry about that. :-)

Thanks for the update John....hope you're enjoying your getaway. Museums? ;-)

Fueller..could you post a larger clear image of the sig? I didn't look at your upload of this until now and it is way too wee to see. :-D

I'm going to say "personal reasons" and leave it at that, sorry. But I did manage to get in a visit to the museum of art and also PAFA, and both were fantastic.

The original watercolour is of Froghole Farm, Crockham Hill in Kent - it was one of his favourite subjects. http://www.artvalue.com/auctionresul...nt-1746259.htm
