Hector Caffieri Watercolour Genre painter

British painter Hector Caffieri (1847-1932) produced works depicting coastal life with a sun-kissed sublime quality.
He utilised colour in a 'charming' manner which appealed greatly to art critics at the time. He was praised for his 'assured cleverness of handling' each scene, complimenting gorgeous, flourishing landscapes with figures of women and children.
There is little sense of narrative lent to each piece with these figures, instead they seek to enhance the atmosphere in his works.
