This is a small sketchbook style painting, but has great character and superb colouring,
A piece of rural England is depicted in this painting. With a church tower nestled among hills and country buildings. Two cows are grazing in the grassy field under a leafy summer tree.
A photograph has been found in Archer’s photo albums of a similar scene as in the painting.
