Caw comments on the present work, 'Desire to complete the many pictures commenced during the two preceding years, perhaps also the attraction of the new studio, kept him at home throughout 1896, and the new pictures commenced were entirely landscapes. But the exquisite 'Cornfields', the fine 'Harvest at Broomieknowe', the charming 'Golden Autumn, Lothianburn,' and the lovely 'Harvest Moon at Twilight' would have made any year notable'. (J.L. Caw, op. cit. p. 133).
