The Shepherd (A Pastoral Scene) - Sir Alfred East (1844 - 1913)
REF: 5011
Medium - Oil on Canvas
Size - 16" x 22" (41cm x 56cm)
Recto - Signed
Verso – Two old labels from different periods with different reference numbers that mention The Fine Art Society. The older label is not particularly legible but shows Ref No: 29051. The second label states “The Fine Art Society, no: 3269, date January 1969. Pastoral. Sir Alfred East RA”
The labels appear to indicate that the artwork was exhibited at The Fine Art Society in London on two separate occasions with the earlier one quite possibly being the Sir Alfred East Memorial Exhibition in 1918.
