Painting, watercolour, Carlisle from the Sands, Cumberland, by William Henry Nutter, 1868.
View of Carlisle at sunset from beside the River Eden which flows to right of composition, cattle lingering in the shallows beside the left hand bank. It is spanned by Eden Bridge which crosses composition horizontally. The city lies beyond, reflected by the river. The cathedral stands to left of composition, factory chimneys to its right and the castle in the centre.
