Postbridge - Dartmoor Painting

Painted on 24x36" gessoed cotton canvas (dimensions above include frame), framed in an English style, with nylon hanging cord and d-rings. On 16th April, 2022, a photographer friend suggested we visit Postbridge on Dartmoor. The clapper bridge is 900 years old and has kept the feet of 40 generations dry. I was struck by it's nobility in it's stillness, despite the simplicity of it's construction. The stones are barely changed from how they were when pulled from the earth. This picture was painted 'en plein air'. The detail and contrast is focused on the bridge in the middle ground, making the foreground and background seem more transient and loose. The placement of the child as the only figure is deliberate.
