Terrence Bell, Rural Landscape with Horses

Updated August 18, 2026

An oil painting on canvas-covered board by Terrence Bell, depicting a pastoral scene with two brown horses grazing in a field beside a stream. In the middle distance, a thatched-roof cottage is visible against a low horizon and a sky filled with pale clouds. The work is executed in a representational style with textured, impasto brushwork. The painting is signed 'Terrence Bell' in the lower right corner. The piece is housed in a broad, tiered off-white wooden frame with a gold-toned inner slip. The verso features a textured board backing with a hanging wire. Dimensions (framed): H 57 cm x W 70 cm. Condition: The painting shows visible craquelure across the surface. There is significant localised flaking and paint loss in the upper left area, specifically within the dark green foliage of the trees, revealing the light support underneath. The frame has minor surface marks and wear consistent with age.
