Associated Names
Muirhead Bone

Artist, Scottish, 1876 - 1953

The image shows a landscape from an elevated viewpoint, with rolling terrain, a horizon in the upper third that meets a line of trees and houses fading in the distance. The brushstrokes are expressive, creating varied shades of gray with wash techniques accentuating the landscape's forms. The color palette is monochromatic in black, white, and gray. A structure with a sloping roof and a fence curving across the scene lead the eye towards distant hills under a textured, cloudy sky.
