Description

Type of artwork: Original Antique Watercolour
Artist and Signature: Colonel Harold Percy Ditmas (1853–1937) of York
Colonel Harold Percy Ditmas (1853–1937) was a solicitor and auxiliary officer who commanded the Durham Artillery from 1895, later serving with distinction in the Boer War and World War I. He was granted the honorary rank of Colonel in 1901. A member of a long-established York military family, Ditmas was also a skilled watercolourist. Often signing his works “H.P.D.”, he produced a series of topographical views from the 1870s to the early 20th century, recording Clifton, York, Shoeburyness, and other places connected with his life and service. Today his paintings are valued both as decorative works and as important historical records of vanished or altered locations.
Subject: A charming watercolour showing cottages on Burton Stone Lane, York. The annotation notes that the cottages were demolished in 1896, making this a valuable historic record of lost York architecture.
Approximate age of artwork: Dated 1896
Is the artwork Framed or Mounted: Mounted on backing card (unframed).
