Landscape - Derbyshire

George Heming Mason 1818 - 1872

Summary

Romantic Derbyshire landscape scene, depicting two children standing together in a field. Beside the children is a basket of washing with items scattered on the ground to their right. A shallow path is visible on the left, leading off towards houses and trees in the background; a flock of sheep lie on the grass beside the field's wall. In the far distance, hills stand beneath a hazy sky with birds soaring high above.
