Artist

Gibson

Gibson is a Rococo painting artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Gibson painted calm, detailed landscapes in watercolour in the late 1700s and early 1800s. This era prized close observation of nature, and View near Bristol shows gentle hills, a winding river and soft light, all handled in delicate washes of colour. The work’s quiet charm sits in the fine edges and gentle gradations of tone. Tap View near Bristol to take a closer look at this pocket-sized window onto the English countryside from the 1790s.
