Descriptif du lot

A landscape painter in both oil and watercolour, Shalders lived in Portsmouth and then in London, where he exhibited at the Royal Academy 1848-62, the British Institution, Suffolk Street and the New Water-Colour Society. His rural views are often gentle and mellow in character, depicting the countryside around Hampshire, Surrey, Yorkshire, Wales and Ireland, and occasionally on the Continent. Works by Shalders exist in the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, and the Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool.
