Close He Had Come...

Edward Webb, after George Elgar Hicks

National Gallery of Art

The image shows two individuals and a horse in an outdoor setting. The first person, an adult male, is standing beside the horse. He wears a hat that casts a shadow over his eyes, a tailored jacket, knee-length trousers, and boots, and holds the horse's reins. The second individual is seated on the ground, leaning against a tree or bush, with a book on her lap. She has long, wavy hair adorned with flowers and wears a flowing gown with long sleeves. The background features trees, shrubs, and a waterfall cascading down a cliffside into a body of water.
