{"product_id":"the-manor-park-alfred-parsons","title":"The Manor Park - Alfred Parsons","description":"\u003cp\u003eA detailed oil painting by Alfred Parsons depicting a quiet English manor park under a dramatic, cloud-filled sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlfred Parsons was a British painter known for his precise observation of the English countryside. In this work, he captures a quiet moment within a manor park, where the rolling green hills meet a dramatic, cloud-filled sky. The composition draws the eye across the gentle slope, past a small group of figures gathered near a wooden gate, towards the distant silhouette of the manor house.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eParsons possessed a deep knowledge of botany and horticulture, which informs the treatment of the trees and grasses. He avoids idealisation, preferring to record the specific textures of the foliage and the shifting light of a late afternoon. The palette is dominated by earthy greens, ochres, and the muted greys of a heavy sky, creating a sense of atmospheric depth. The figures are small in scale, serving to provide a sense of proportion to the vastness of the parkland.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis painting reflects the late nineteenth-century interest in the preservation of the English rural aesthetic. Parsons often worked as an illustrator for botanical publications, and this background is evident in the careful rendering of the foreground vegetation. The brushwork is controlled, allowing for a clear depiction of the terrain while maintaining a soft, painterly quality in the clouds. The work functions as a record of a specific place and time, capturing the quietude of a private estate. It is a representative example of the artist's ability to balance technical accuracy with a sensitive response to the natural environment. The interplay between the dark, heavy clouds and the illuminated grass creates a natural contrast that gives the scene its structure and mood.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alfred Parsons","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58344944140623,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58344955150671,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58344955183439,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58344955216207,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58344955248975,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58344955281743,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58344955314511,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58344955347279,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58344955380047,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58344955412815,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58344955445583,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58344955478351,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/The-Manor-Park_Poster_CompositorV1_1785387646332.jpg?v=1785388893","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/the-manor-park-alfred-parsons","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
