Enniskerry, Co. Wicklow is a 1857 watercolor by Edward Hargitt, a Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a quiet countryside scene with rolling hills and a distant mountain. In the foreground, a group of cows and sheep are resting on a grassy slope. The sky above is light and airy, with soft clouds, while the hills have patches of green and brown. The artist used loose, quick brushstrokes to capture the natural light and movement in the landscape. This style focuses on how things look in real life rather than perfect details.
