Légende
The Wood Gatherers, 1869. North?s watercolours of the rural landscape of Somerset unite the seemingly contradictory states of minutely rendered detail with atmospheric effects. Herbert Alexander, the artist?s biographer, described the artist?s interpretation of nature as similar to that of a poet, suggesting rather than describing: "In watercolour and oil an effect of intricate detail is found on examination to be quite illusive-multitudinous form is conjured by finding and losing it in endless hide-and-seek till the eye accepts infinity."
