Richmond Park covers 2,500 acres on the south-west edge of London. It is the largest of the Royal Parks, large enough to swallow Hyde Park, Regent's Park and St James's combined. Around 600 red and fallow deer have roamed it since the seventeenth century. It is also dark enough, for a London location, that it functions as a National Nature Reserve. This miniature catches it at sunset. Warm hues across the sky, the familiar silhouettes of the park's older trees, the open fields settling into evening. The format is deliberate: small paintings hold their light differently to large ones, and Joshua's miniatures are finished works rather than sketches for something later. Oil on board, approximately 10cm by 10cm, signed by hand. Sold unframed.

Joshua paints British rivers in oil, the Thames mostly, with a few weeks each year on the Solway coast. The light he chases is the light Constable chased: dusk along Pen Ponds, morning on the towpath, the moment the tide turns at Teddington Lock.
