Capt R Riddley (19th century)
Wagons at Sunset, Arizona
Signed, inscribed and dated 1860, further inscribed verso, watercolour, 10.5cm by 17.5 cm
The American Civil War started in 1861, a year after this work was painted, and shattered the peacefulness depicted in Wagons at Sunset, Arizona. Captain R Riddley remains unknown, but was obviously a gifted amateur artist and has left us this early historical work of 19th century Arizona.
