Richard RA Westall

Richard RA Westall is a Romanticism artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Richard Westall painted watercolours of gentle rural scenes and Bible stories in the late 1700s to early 1800s. In *Landscape with Figures and Cows* he places quiet cattle and people under soft English skies, while *Tobias and the Fish* shows the angel-guided journey from the Book of Tobit. These works sit in a tradition of British watercolour storytelling that kept careful detail and calm light. See how the cow’s flank catches the light in *Landscape with Figures and Cows*.
