Artist, Scottish, 1865 - 1945

The image depicts a landscape featuring distant mountains. The horizon line is low in the composition, with a wide expanse of sky above. The brushstroke style is subtle with sparse use of color. The color palette is soft and muted, with earthy tones. The land close to us is flat and sandy, leading towards the mountains in the background, which are distinctly outlined yet blended into the sky.
