About the piece

Created around 1770 by Richard Wilson, this painting is a quintessential example of the classical landscape tradition. The work skillfully balances the shadowed foreground featuring local figures and a majestic oak tree with a luminous middle ground where a river winds toward a hazy, sun-drenched mountain peak.
