Near Postbridge, Dartmoor is a 1935 watercolor by Edward Mossforth Neatby, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a quiet, rolling landscape with soft hills in the distance. A winding road cuts through green fields, leading toward a small cluster of buildings near the center. The sky is mostly cloudy, with patches of light breaking through, and the colors are muted—greens, browns, and grays. The artist used loose, watery strokes to capture the mood of the scene, making it feel fresh and natural. The signature in the corner reads "Edward Mossforth Neatby," matching the facts.
