An oil and pencil work on board by British artist Bryan Ingham, depicting the landscape of the Lizard Peninsula in Cornwall. Cottages, fields and the rising moon are reduced to interlocking geometric forms and sweeping curves, reflecting Ingham’s approach to combining observed landscape with abstraction.
Bryan Ingham (1936–1997) was a British painter, printmaker and sculptor whose work was closely associated with the landscape of Cornwall. After settling on the Lizard Peninsula, the surrounding fields, stone boundaries, buildings and coastline became recurring subjects within his work. Working across painting, drawing, etching, collage and assemblage, he developed a distinctive visual language combining landscape with geometric abstraction.
