About this work

Here’s the rewritten description: This watercolour shows a quiet view across Esthwaite Water. It’s a calm landscape painted in November 1909. Beatrix Potter made many such studies of the Lake District. She often sketched the area after buying Hill Top Farm in 1905. The lake was a favorite spot for her walks. This work captures a simple, peaceful moment. If you like this, check out more by Beatrix Potter.
