Lot Essay

This work belongs to a series of three paintings that evolved from drawings Sharon Smart made, in the gentle undulating landscape of inspirational Wiltshire during late Spring 2023. Aldbourne Four Barrows is a linear barrow cemetery dating from the Early Bronze Age. Excavated towards the end of the 19th century, their contents including skeletons, arrowheads, an axe and a dagger, now reside in the British Museum.
