Signed John Gillo Landscape Print of Dartmouth Harbor
This item is a framed and matted artistic print by the contemporary British artist John Gillo, known for his depictions of Devon and South West England. The artwork features a waterfront scene, likely the Old Market or harbor area of Dartmouth, showcasing stone buildings with slate roofs, a quayside, and small boats moored in the water. The color palette is composed of soft earth tones, greens, and blues, rendered in Gillo’s signature illustrative watercolor style. The print is housed in a large off-white or cream mat board within a dark, simple wood frame with a gold-tone inner fillet. The artist's signature is visible in the lower right-hand corner of the print itself. In terms of condition, the paper of the matting shows visible foxing—small brown spots caused by age and humidity—particularly along the upper right and lower edges. There is also a distinct darkening or adhesive residue visible along the very top edge of the mat. The framing appears stable, though it suggests the piece has been displayed for some time without museum-grade UV protection or acid-free materials, given the discoloration. John Gillo has operated a gallery in Dartmouth since 1976, and his work is highly regarded for capturing the local light and architectural heritage of the region. This piece likely dates from the late 20th century to early 21st century and represents a classic example of maritime-themed English regional art.
