Painting, watercolour, Cumrew, East Fellside, Cumberland, by William James Blacklock, 1850-58?
This watercolour is a view facing west of Cumrew, East Fellside on the edge of the Pennines in northern Cumbria; not far from his family home at Cumwhitton. Foreground consists of moorland scattered with birch trees in front of a drystone wall. Beyond this can be seen to left of composition a low stone cottage. Beyond are shadowy distant fells of the Eden Valley and the northern fells of the Lake District in the far distance. A fine example of a Blacklock watercolour painted on the spot.
