Peter Tearman – Fishing by moonlight – Gouache
Fishing by Moonlight is an original gouache on paper/card by Peter Tearman (1917-1994), dating from the 1960s and measuring 14 x 12 inches. It is a genuine hand-painted picture, not a print.
Tearman studied at the Slade School of Fine Art under William Coldstream, and his work reflects the social themes his contemporaries were exploring, with a nocturnal subject handled in quick, atmospheric washes.
Alongside our theatre memorabilia we offer a small selection of original paintings by British artists, ideal for collectors looking for affordable mid-century works with real character.
