COTTAGES NEAR DIEPPE, 1925
watercolour, Sheet 32.6 x 38.2 cm
Gift of Yvonne Cohen and Valerie Albiston, 1958
Collection: Ballarat Fine Art Gallery

This work was one of many watercolours that David Davies produced of Dieppe and the nearby villages.

It is a delicate work, and its honest depiction of the cottages in the village, is less structured and formal, and more spontaneous than many of his watercolours depicting the churches and other buildings within the township of Dieppe.
