DescriptionOil on canvas painting. This is a pastoral landscape in summer. There is a body of water in the foreground and center. On the left, far bank are several animals, including a goat. On the right, near bank are cattle and a pair of domestic buildings -- possibly a house and barn. The landscape is dominated by a large tree on the right bank. A figure is seated, in shadow, on the bank beneath the tree. A village with a church steeple seems to spring from In the center background.ProvenanceAuslew Gallery, 1962; Edward J.
