Description
In this evocative painting of Buttermere, William captures the soft evening light just catching the tops of the High Stile range, while the rest of the valley lies in shadow. In the foreground he paints the Scots pines, “grouped together as if in conversation”, at the head of the lake, which shimmers in the fading light.
“Here, with the great crags looming above, the sun’s rays slanting across them and the lake lapping at their feet, the character of this valley seems to be brought to one of its highest peaks, and, for many people, this place remains in the memory more than any other in the whole district.” – William Heaton Cooper, The Lakes, p.129.
