About the piece
Created in 1864 by James Smetham, this oil on panel work is a fine example of 19th-century British landscape painting. The scene captures the idyllic atmosphere of Richmond Park, where two figures enjoy a quiet moment of reading in the foreground as a herd of deer settles under the sprawling canopy of an ancient tree.
