About the piece

Created in 1808 by David Cox, this delicate watercolor exemplifies the atmospheric tradition of English landscape painting. The work uses a warm, muted palette to depict Lincoln Cathedral looming through a hazy sky, contrasted by the detailed activity of sailing vessels and figures at the water's edge of Brayford Pool.
