Lot Essay

In the 1930s Eurich was painting a lot in the West Country. However the 'WY' in the registration refers to Whitby rather than Weymouth and this work is likely a result of a trip to Yorkshire, or alternatively he may have worked from an old drawing that he happened on in his sketchbook.

We are very grateful to Christine Clearkin for her assistance in preparing this catalogue entry and for Philippa Bambach for the catalogue note.
