Cornish Flooded Claypit

Francis Ferdinand Maurice Cook 1907 - 1978

Summary

View of a flooded claypit in Cornwall. The rocky face of the claypit surrounds the scene and is reflected in the deep blue water below. In the foreground, a woman sits on a grassy verge as the fast moving water creates a white pool beside him; the woman looks towards the viewer, and to her right a single tree is visible beside the sharp rockface.
