Iris Walker (1987), Kaye's Arms, Grange Moor, Mixed Media Landscape - This mixed media landscape on paper, incorporating watercolour, pastel, and charcoal, depicts the rural approach to the Kaye's Arms at Grange Moor, West Yorkshire. The composition is executed in a muted tonalist style, capturing a damp, overcast atmosphere through soft blending in the sky and foreground, contrasted with defined, graphic charcoal work in the skeletal trees. The artwork is signed and dated ”IRIS WALKER . 87” in the lower right corner. The piece is housed in a wide, light-brown window mount which is inscribed in ink at the lower right ”KAYE'S ARMS, GRANGE MOOR.” It is presented in a simple polished wood frame. Two white adhesive lot stickers are present on the mount, marked ”W” and ”501.”.
