Paul, Sylvia’s comment that the paintings don’t all look like they were by the same artist prompted me to look again at the two of the Highland Calves which do seem a different style, and these are actually the work of another British Impressionist, Carl E. Watson.  (Sorry, you must be getting fed up with me checking things!)

And take another look at the framed one with the little girls and dog, this appears to be by the Russian artist Alexander Averin.

It’s easy done, Paul, on Google searches, we’ve all been caught out.  (I feel mean pointing it out but thought you’d prefer to know.) Agree with Sylvia, you do an amazing job, keep it up!

Thank you both for the very kind comment, as I have said before I do thoroughly enjoy doing this thread , a bit like a boy with his new toy . I would prefer you or anyone telling me  it’s wrong otherwise people take it for fact and we never learn . Jenny pleases continue to pick up on mistakes for the benefit of us all , we then all learn about other artists etc. It’s just frustration and feeling cross with myself but I will get over it.

That explains a lot - I saw Landseer in the two cattle paintings but no sign of him anywhere else.  Don't kick yourself, Paul, it's a fantastically easy mistake to make.  I don't think it much changes my view of Dewhurst as an experimenter, though - it does a bit.

Sure - just tell me when: Sir Edwin Landseer, I think - a man with total control of his brush.
