Artist, Scottish, 1865 - 1945

The image shows a landscape view from a higher vantage point. There is a horizon with buildings, trees, and an open skyline. The brushstrokes are loose and impressionistic, depicting architectural forms and natural elements with minimal detail. The color palette is subtle with earthy browns, grays, blacks, reds, and yellows. Closest to the viewer are broad strokes suggesting an open area leading to distant structures. The background is primarily an open sky with more defined features where the structures meet it.
