‘William Nicholson is too good an artist to search for the unobvious. He knows it is but fatuous to seek for those things outside the common ones of everyday life and find, in them only, worthy objects of his attention.’ (Albert Rutherston, Contemporary British Artist: William Nicholson, William Brendon & Sons Ltd, 1923, p.16.)
Tenterden captures a lovely summer scene of William Nicholson’s children on a family outing playing by the river. The work was painted whilst the Nicholsons were staying with the Victorian actress Dame Ellen Terry at Smallhythe in Kent. Nancy relaxes in a canoe and Ben poses at the centre of the composition, balancing an extremely long fishing rod, while Tony sits with his back to us, concentrating on fishing at the lower right of the composition.
