( x cm), Paintings, Frederick Waters Watts (British, Bath 1800–1870 Hampstead), A follower of John Constable, Watts exhibited widely as a landscapist but ceased painting around 1860. In this canvas, his meticulous attention to setting—as in the crumbling brickwork at the end of the bridge—is animated by sprightly figures: passersby on the road, a wader in the water, and a dog hovering at the stream’s edge
