Landscape oil painting of a busy village by Georgina Lara

Georgina Lara
British, (fl. 1862-1871)
Bustling Village Life
Oil on canvas, signed

Georgina Lara also known as Edwina Lara was a London painter of rustic farmyard and village scenes. Her work also closely resembles that of Edward Masters who also went by the name of William Masters. They are believed by many to be one in the same. However, there is also a possibility that she may have been related to the artists William Paul Lara and Edward William Lara.
 
Lara exhibited a number of works at the British Institution and Suffolk Street. Her paintings are full of charm, often containing groups of small figures and detailed buildings. Many of her works are also centred around villages or hamlets such as this lovely example.

Examples of her work are held by the Russell-Cotes Art Gallery & Museum.

Presentation: The painting is housed in a new, English made gilt frame which is in excellent condition.
Condition: As with all of our original antique oil paintings, this work is offered in ready to hang gallery condition, having just been professionally cleaned, restored and revarnished.
