This watercolor shows a simple wooden mill by a flooded river. The building has a sloped roof, small windows, and a tiny tower on top. A boat sits tied up near the shore, and a tall chimney rises to the right. The water reflects the structures, and the whole scene looks quiet and still. The artist signed it "Hambledon Mill from the Weir" in July 1943. The loose brushstrokes give it a soft, sketchy feel—like a quick study rather than a polished work. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum for more works like this.
