The house featured in this picture is fictional but was one that Grimshaw returned to in several of his works. A notable example is In the Golden Olden Time which is in the Harris Museum and Art Gallery, Preston. This composition of a figure walking down a lane bathed in autumnal sunshine, with a Victorian mansion hidden behind an imposing park wall was a theme that he worked on principally in the 1880s and 1890s.

We are grateful to Alexander Robertson, Curator, Leeds City Art Gallery, for his help in the preparation of this catalogue entry.
