Containing many of the themes and motifs that would preoccupy Martin throughout his career, this beautifully preserved watercolour dates to circa 1810-11, about five years after the young painter had arrived in London from his native Northumberland. In 1811 he was to exhibit his first work at the Royal Academy.
We are grateful to Michael Campbell for his help when cataloguing this work.
