Charles Leslie, Landscape With Maids & Flock
A gentle British pastoral scene depicting three women tending to their flock. The artist, Charles Leslie (1839-1886) has selected a time of the day when the sun is low and the shadows are long. It’s a painting to lose yourself into.
Charles Leslie was a member of the Williams family of painters who were widely known during the 19th-century. His grandfather, Edward Williams (1781–1855), was an accomplished landscape painter and all six of his sons became artists.
Perhaps to differentiate himself, Charles opted to focus on the Scottish and Welsh moorlands where he produced a great deal of his work. His landscapes often portray stark mountains and still waters. It’s easy to imagine that this could be a Scottish scene but its original title has been lost over time. A label on the reverse seems to mention the Spring but a location is difficult to decipher.
Leslie exhibited at the Royal Academy, the British Institution and the Royal Society of British Artists. He’s currently represented in several museums including the National Library of Wales, the Royal Holloway Museum at the University of London and the Victoria Museum and Gallery in Liverpool.
The painting is signed in the lower right, inscribed on the reverse and housed within a good later foliate frame with pierced corners.
Medium: Oil on canvas
Overall size: 48½” x 32” / 123cm x 81cm
Year of creation: c. 1870
Provenance: England
Condition: Areas of craquelure but the paint layer is stable. The canvas has been restored at least once and one area is a little undulant. Frame with some light wear and a few abrasions.
Artist’s auction highlight: £5,400 achieved for ‘Moonlit Highland Landscape with Crags and Peaks surrounding a Loch’ at auction in 2000. Brave Fine Art is a boutique art dealership based in the picturesque Malvern Hills, England. Established in 2017, our clients include private collectors and interiors designers throughout the UK, USA and Canada.
We tend to focus on decorative art that captures the imagination - from monumental 17th-century portraits through to characterful vintage landscapes. Every piece in the collection has an interesting story to tell and we work hard to discover the hidden history behind each one.

Terms and conditions
Please be assured that we inspect every painting, drawing or print to check for issues relating to its condition during its time here with us. When we notice a fault or potential problem, we will note this down on the item's condition report, which can be found within each listing. We take various steps to ensure that your artwork will stand the test of time but we're unable to offer any warranties or guarantees as we're just one custodian in a potentially long line of previous owners.
Our inspections include a check for any signs of woodworm, historic or otherwise, as this is not unusual in antique frames or stretchers. If we discover any small holes, we treat the wood with a solution which states that "its deep penetration ensures effective protection for many years and prevents re-infestation". With this in mind, it's very unlikely that any future issues will occur, especially given that the wood may also have been treated by previous owners. However, as mentioned above, we are unable to provide any warranties or guarantees - just be assured that we care.
Also, many of the paintings include hanging equipment, namely wire or string. Sometimes this is already present when we purchase an item so we check to see if it's been attached correctly. However, we can't test the durability of this equipment as many of the paintings are sold quickly. So please do seek any advice if you're unsure how to hang your paintings correctly, especially if they're heavy, and do check on them from time to time.
If you have any questions at all, please just ask.
