A charming example of Victorian folk art, this naïve sand picture dates to the 19th century and showcases a beautifully handcrafted scene using naturally coloured sand. A bird and bird box surrounded by a heart, symbolising love and harmony created by sprinkling sand onto paper behind glass, with a lovely timeworn feel. Popular in seaside towns like Brighton and Bournemouth, these artworks were often made by amateur artists, sailors, tourists, and children. A true collector’s piece with ties to Victorian craft traditions. It is likely that it was reframed at a later stage and it can be hung or placed on a tabletop.
