John William North painted a watercolour scene called In an Orchard, Devon in 1864. The work fits between Impressionism and Realism, two movements that focus on light and everyday life. North belonged to a small group called the Idyllists. He loved capturing thick orchards and glimmers of light with countless tiny brushstrokes. Look next at the artist John William North.
