The Ferry
Wimperis, Edmund Morison (VPRI) 1835 - 1900
Summary
Rural landscape with a wide river running across the scene. A grassy bank is visible in the bottom left corner with a moored rowing boat at the water's edge. A small hamlet can be seen on the opposite bank to the right, with houses and church obscured by dense trees. Herds of cattle stand at the water's edge on the left and right side of the river in the background. More trees and landscape can be seen in the distance beneath a hazy cloud covered sky.
