Study of Foliage

Christopher Whall

1897

Studio (1925), p. 364.

Christopher Whall's childhood in Thurning-cum-Gidding, Northamptonshire, inspired him with a love of nature which is always apparent in his works. His figures are often set amid a delicate and detailed frame of foliage, sometimes with birds and other small creatures amongst it.
