The trees on Bale’s Hill, Bale’s Farm in Misterton is a well-known landmark and featured in many pictures by K-H. The watercolour depicts the trees on the hill with the horizon beyond. In the main the composition is a cloud study. K-H was well skilled in painting clouds where the rapid notation of the ever-moving subject suited the speed at which he worked.
