Livingston, titled \u003cem data-start=\"129\" data-end=\"143\"\u003eWinter Trees\u003c\/em\u003e, depicting a winter landscape with bare trees, low stone walling and distant blue hills beyond. The work has a quiet, atmospheric quality, with a restrained palette of browns, greys, greens and muted blues capturing the feel of the Scottish countryside in winter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"409\" data-end=\"831\"\u003eThe painting is especially appealing for its richly textured surface. Livingston uses thick impasto and expressive palette-knife handling to build up the branches, foreground wall and rough landscape forms, giving this small work a strong sense of movement and depth. The exposed winter trees create a striking structure across the composition, while the touches of blue in the distance bring light and space to the scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"833\" data-end=\"1320\"\u003eLivingston was a Scottish painter associated with landscape and still life subjects, and is recorded as having exhibited with institutions including the Royal Scottish Academy, the Royal Glasgow Institute and the Royal Scottish Society of Painters in Watercolour. This work is painted on a Geo. Rowney \u0026amp; Co. Academy Board and retains a later biographical note verso. A charming and characterful Scottish landscape by a collectable woman artist, presented in an attractive giltwood frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1322\" data-end=\"1554\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nan C.
