Original Water-Colour entitled - 'Buskers in Cannon Street C1896' by artist 'John Sutton'. (born 1935-current). Several of Johns' paintings were sold at Christies in 1997, but this particular watercolour we consider to be one of his finest: This busy 19th century street scene, with St.Pauls in the background, is both charming and interesting. The eye is drawn back to it again and again, taking in the strong colours and the dynamic sense of movement.
The watercolour is mounted framed, and glazed. The frame does have one or two very small chips on it; but in all honesty the existing frame does not do it justice; a better and more purposeful frame would enhance this delightful picture even more.
