Durham, England

Samuel Colman

National Gallery of Art

The image is a landscape with a river in the foreground, leading toward a town with a large castle in the distance. The sky is filled with textured clouds, and the castle sits on a tree-covered hill. In the foreground, there are cattle by the river and a stone bridge in the middle ground. The color scheme is sepia-toned, giving the image a vintage feel.
