This landscape would have been Knighton-Hammond experimenting with rapid, fluid brush strokes. Painted in pure, direct watercolour the wet track draws the spectator’s eye into the picture. The trees are silhouetted against the calm sky. This is very much a picture produced to keep the artist’s hand in and possibly warming up for a more extensive composition.
