About the piece
Created around 1840, this watercolor by Samuel Palmer showcases the artist's romantic approach to the English landscape. The scene features the Underriver Hills near Sevenoaks, with small cottages and thin plumes of smoke suggesting a quiet, rural existence. The warm, earthy palette and delicate use of gouache create a timeless, atmospheric quality typical of Palmer's later works.
