Painting, oil painting, Rural Scene, Cumbria? attributed
to Julius Caesar Ibbetson, 1800s.
Summertime; a man wearing the dress of an agrigultural
worker waves goodbye to a woman standing in the doorway of a
tiny ramshackle house in centre of composition. A second man
lies in front of the building, a horse grazing nearby. To
extreme right of composition stands a gnarled oak tree;
between the tree and the house the rolling landscape unfolds
in the distance.
