About the piece
Created in 1783 by the 'father of English watercolor,' Paul Sandby, this view at Charlton captures the harmonious intersection of industry and nature. The composition features a prominent sand cliff contrasted with leafy trees and a rustic horse-drawn timber carriage, all bathed in the soft light of a Kent afternoon.
