This painting shows a landscape with cows drinking from a body of water. There are several cows in the foreground, with some standing and others lying down. The background features a windmill and a few buildings, with a blue sky dotted with clouds. The artist has used oil paint to create this scene, with visible brushstrokes and textures that add depth and dimension to the image. The colors are muted, with earthy tones dominating the palette. The Victoria and Albert Museum is home to this painting, where it can be viewed by visitors.
James M. Burnet (1788–1816) was an artist, born in Musselburgh.
