FREDERICK LEE BRIDELL (BRITISH 1831-1863)SHEPHERD IN A LANDSCAPE Oil on canvas laid on panel17 x 28.5cm (6½ x 11 in.)Provenance: A. Tilbrook, from whom purchased by Robert KimeThis picture was probably completed at some time during Bridell's stay near Lake Como/Lake Lecco in 1860/61. The background lake and boat are reminiscent of his work around that location. As an imaginative work, he has combined elements from sketchesmade as he travelled from Rome, through the campagna to Northern Italy. It is a possibility that these were done as gifts for friends, as they came back to England with the larger works completed at that time. We are grateful to Catherine Hull, the author of Frederick Lee Bridell (1830-1863), for her help in preparing this catalogue entry.
