I specialise in affordable original artworks - mainly traditional watercolours and oil paintings but I also have a range of contemporary artworks including limited edition lithographic prints. I also stock a limited selection of antiques and collectables, including treen, ceramics and glass. I have now opened a shop in Wallingford (OX100BU) between Reading and Oxford, but I also trade online. My website, www.artandstuffgallery.com has a gallery section with several mini-galleries where my items are displayed, including more contemporary items not shown on LoveAntiques.

Description
An atmospheric and peaceful etching by Robert Farren (1832-1912) showing flooded marshland surrounding the Isle of Ely, with the very recognisable silhouette of Ely Cathedral in the distance. Signed by the artist on the plate and dated 1880.
Farren was born in Cambridge and spent much of his life there, except for a period in Scarborough. He published a series of topographical works with etchings of the area around Cambridge and Cathedral Cities. He also painted in oils and watercolour and exhibited at Royal Academy between 1872-1889
