Artist, Scottish, 1865 - 1945

The image shows a landscape with a river or body of water bordered by trees. The viewpoint appears slightly elevated, looking down at the scene. There are trees creating a dark silhouette against the sky and distant foliage. The style appears soft and impressionistic, with fine lines implying movement and texture. The color scheme is mainly sepia, contributing to the atmospheric mood. Closest to us, there are sloping land and a small figure near the water. In the distance, trees blend into the sky, creating depth.
