Landscape with a Waterfall and Anglers is an oil by George Smith, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
The painting depicts a serene landscape with a waterfall and two anglers. The waterfall cascades down a rocky slope, creating a misty veil that rises into the air. The anglers stand on the riverbank, their lines cast into the water. The surrounding landscape is lush and green, with trees and foliage that add depth and texture to the scene. In the background, the sky is a soft, hazy blue, with a few wispy clouds drifting lazily across it. The overall effect is one of peacefulness and tranquility, inviting the viewer to step into the idyllic world of the painting.
