Painting, watercolour, Mountain and Lake Scene, Cumbria, by Frederick Clive Newcome, 1889.
Autumn; to left of composition lies a sloping cornfield flanked by a hedge beyond which the roof of a small building is visible in the midst a stand of tall trees. A narrow path winds downhill beside the cornfield towards the lakeside; three geese stand amidst clumps of heather beside the path to right of composition. Intervening landscape of woods and fields fills centre of composition. Barren fells rise above the lake, some of them cloaked in mist.
Perhaps Angler's Crag on Ennerdale Water.
