Painting, oil painting, On the Banks of Derwentwater,
Silver Birch, Cumberland, by William James Blacklock, about
1843.
In foreground a young woman sits beside the lake in the
shade of two tall birch trees, eating a solitary meal; she
has a cloth spread over her lap and a flagon and basket
standing beside her. Two long horned cows graze on the
foreshore of the lake upon which two small boats sail.
Distant fells rise beyond.
