About the piece

Painted in 1842 by David Cox, this oil on canvas captures the sweeping beauty of the Wye Valley. The composition uses towering pines to frame a distant view of the river winding through lush cliffs, with small figures and livestock adding a touch of pastoral charm to the expansive scene.
