About the painting

This painting is a combined effort by Frederick Richard Lee (1798-1879) and Thomas Sydney Cooper (1803-1902). From 1847 they were regular collaborators, Lee undertaking the painting of the landscape and Cooper the painting of the animals. In Walks Among London's Pictures published in 1910, E.B. Chancellor wrote of this picture: "the landscape is clever and attractive, especially the glimpse of the distance, and the cows are less 'tinny' than is usual with Cooper [proving how] infinitely better his work in this direction was as an adjunct to a landscape than when the animals formed the chief motif." Despite both artists exhibiting many works at the Royal Academy and elsewhere, this particular one does not appear to have been shown.
