The Fishing Hut, Eddington Fishery

The Fishing Hut, Eddington Fishery is a relatively modern work, although the subject, palette and style bring together the traditions of the Barbizon School and Post-Impressionism. This charming and peaceful scene, executed locally at Eddington stages the beautiful nearby countryside with a sense of untouched timelessness and solitude.
