Alfred John Herbert

Alfred John Herbert is a British Romanticism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Alfred John Herbert’s small watercolours capture everyday places in mid-1800s Britain. His *Barnstaple, Devon* from around 1855 shows the town’s lanes and rooftops in soft washes of blue and ochre, no figures, just the quiet shape of buildings. You’ll find it next to the bridge with the green railings. Tap *Barnstaple, Devon* to step into the scene and trace the riverbanks with your finger.
