Possibly one of the largest Fred Yates oil paintings we have ever offered.
Fred Yates is celebrated for his colourful and captivating depictions of ordinary life. This wonderful woodland scene captures his spirited approach to the natural world.
The exceptional and very large oil painting invites you into a tranquil woodland pathway, dappled with light and filled with subtle activity with Fred’s characteristic use of vibrant and contrasting colours. Rich greens and earthy browns dominate the scene, but it is the lively accents—splashes of red, blue, and yellow—that bring energy and movement to this wonderful painting. the composition. His thick, impasto offers a textural quality that feels as tactile as it is visual, especially on this scale.
In the foreground, four figures walk along the path, with a charming and classic small black dog , adding warmth and a touch of familiarity to the scene. Fred has captured a fleeting moment—a walk through the woods with companions, surrounded by nature’s quiet splendour.
For collectors, this painting is more than an artwork; it is a reflection of Fred’s unique voice, a celebration of simplicity rendered in a style that is unmistakably his own. It embodies the spirit of British art and nostalgia in equal measure.
