Tree Branches. Artist: Charles Reginald Aston (British, Birmingham 1832-1908 Birmingham). Dimensions: sheet: 9 1/2 x 13 in. (24.1 x 33 cm). Date: 1852-1908. Aston came from Birmingham and trained as an architect before turning to landscape painting. He traveled in Britain and to Italy to seek subjects exhibited at the Royal Academy and Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours in London, and joined the latter in 1882. In this study, closely observed bark, moss and foliage convey a reverence for nature which, together with the artful placement of the branches, suggests an admiration for John Ruskin and the Pre-Raphaelites.
