Framed English Cottage Paintings

Framed English Cottage Art highlights the coziness of these houses, where people lived closely together, frequently sharing the same rooms. Even though their popularity dwindled over the last decades, there are plenty of builders who go to great lengths to erect structures that can be described as mock cottages. On the other side of the Atlantic, many holiday homes built in the wilderness are described as cottages, even though they look very different.

Framed English Cottage Art don’t focus exclusively on the building itself, but also on the surrounding and particularly on the small gardens. Talented painters have used their brush to capture the beauty of these tiny oases of serenity where the residents chose to plant flowers or allowed the vegetation to take over. The front porch of English cottages is also an iconic image that can be admired in artwork, with Abbott Fuller Graves painting several such covered entrances, usually engulfed by colorful flowers.
