"An Old Surrey Cottage" is a watercolour painting by the English artist Helen Mary Elizabeth Allingham, R.W.S. (1848-1926). Known for her picturesque images of the English countryside, Allingham's work often captures the idyllic rural life of the 19th century.

"An Old Surrey Cottage" is indicative of her style, featuring a traditional cottage nestled in the verdant Surrey landscape. The painting showcases the artist's fine attention to detail and her technique of using a muted, naturalistic colour palette.

This painting is part of Allingham's body of work that visually records and preserves the quintessence of Victorian rural architecture and lifestyle, which were under threat due to the industrialisation of Britain. Today, her paintings, including "An Old Surrey Cottage," serve as a historical archive, offering insights into 19th century rural England.

As is typical for Allingham's work, this painting displays her skill in capturing the texture and detail of vegetation and architectural features and in creating an overall sense of charming tranquillity. "An Old Surrey Cottage" is emblematic of a quintessential English landscape, reflecting not only its natural beauty but also the artist's own sentimental attachment to it. The exact date of the painting is not known, but it falls within Allingham's most active period of work during the late 19th and early 20th century.

Helen Allingham, née Paterson, was the first woman to be admitted to full membership within the Royal Watercolour Society. She has since been recognised for her significant contributions to Victorian art and is admired for her delicate and detailed watercolours.
