Anthony Day, who has died aged 100, was a painter and local historian of his village, Wicken, Cambridgeshire, and its surroundings.
Painting en plein air, Tony concentrated solely on landscapes of the fen country, poetic in spirit, updating the English landscape tradition. Until his insurance was refused in his 80s, he could be seen on his motorbike driving into fields with his painting equipment in and around Wicken.
