Artist, Scottish, 1865 - 1945

The image shows a landscape with a slightly elevated perspective. The horizon line is near the center, where distant rolling hills meet the sky. A bridge with three arches is visible on the horizon. On the left, there are barren trees, and on the right, a small wooden structure sits under a large tree. The trees contrast with the rolling hills in the background. The color palette consists of soft browns and sepia. The brushstrokes and line work are detailed, especially in the rendering of the trees and the bridge.
