About the piece
Painted by George Arnald in 1808, this oil on panel captures a pastoral moment in London's history. From a viewpoint near Birdcage Walk, the scene shows figures and livestock in a sun-drenched field, with the iconic towers of Westminster Abbey rising above the city's rooftops in the hazy distance.
