About the piece

Created circa 1855 by Henry Bright, this oil on canvas study beautifully captures the marshlands of the Norfolk Broads. A member of the Norwich School, Bright was celebrated for his ability to render light and atmosphere, as seen here in the glowing horizon and the textured, impasto treatment of the trees and sky.
