An English painter, printmaker, and writer, Ibbetson specialized in producing landscapes. He worked in both the oil and watercolor media and traveled frequently, often depicting far-flung locales. Ibbettson inhabits this moody vista with a handful of picturesque figures, whose presence alludes to the Romantic conceit of man surrounded by nature untamed.
