The Garden Wall

Rodrigo Moynihan 1910 - 1990

Summary

Subdued colours, applied sketchily, depict a red brick and concrete wall enclosing a house and adjoining outbuilding. Bare winter trees surround the house and foliage cascades over the wall. There is a clear grey sky in the background. The setting is Monksbury, a cottage near Bishops Stortford, Hertfordshire, rented by the artist in the 1930s.
