Artist, Scottish, 1865 - 1945

The image shows a landscape with a village or small town in the distance. The horizon is slightly above the center of the image, with buildings and a prominent structure that may be a church or large building with a tower. The brushstrokes are sketch-like with minimal detailing. The color palette is muted and earthy, including pale browns, greys, and hints of violet. Closest to us are faint outlines of structures and fields, with the townscape beyond rendered with slightly more definition. The sky is left mostly blank, creating a tranquil and understated mood.
