Ward

A Chester Row
Untitled
A Study from Nature.

Ward is an artist. 3 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

A late-eighteenth- to early-nineteenth-century watercolourist and draftsman, Ward captured the everyday built world. In “A Chester Row,” narrow brick façades step down a London hill under a grey sky. His “Study from Nature” shows a single leaf pressed to the page, shading noted in careful hatch marks.

The spare pencil “Untitled” sketches a gate hinge in three quick lines, nothing grand, just the quiet geometry of hinge and post. Tap “A Study from Nature” to step closer and trace the veins Ward left behind.
