Rear of House

And here is the same view but from the garden. It always seems extraordinary with these kind of domestic paintings that so little has changed in two hundred years – doesn't one feel one could happily live in this library and garden? The week after next, on returning from Los Angeles - grandchildren! - I'll put up pictures of my mother's house in Germany in 1910 which for years have been hanging in the kitchen and have now been scanned in. A hundred years later you wouldn't have to change a thing to live there in complete contentment.
