Original J. Wilkinson Oil Painting of Cley Windmill, Norfolk.

Description

Original signed oil painting on canvas board by J. Wilkinson depicting the famous Cley Windmill at Cley-next-the-Sea, North Norfolk, England.

A very attractive mid-20th-century British landscape showing the historic windmill and surrounding buildings, with boats drawn up in the foreground and the Norfolk coastline beyond.

The work is signed “J Wilkinson” lower left and presented in its original-style cream frame with contrasting dark green inner detail.

J. Wilkinson is an auction-recorded 20th-century British landscape artist, with works appearing through UK and Irish auction houses.

The subject is Cley Windmill, one of Norfolk’s best-known coastal landmarks. The mill dates from the early 19th century and has become an iconic feature of the North Norfolk landscape.

This is an original painting, not a print, with the texture and brushwork clearly visible on close inspection.
