拍品专文

This charming topographical view of Axmouth Harbour at low-tide was painted whilst Edward William Cooke was staying nearby in August 1858. Cooke's diary entry for 20 August reads '...Set palette & went after dinner to Axmouth Ferry - began new picture on large canvas. Mama came & she sent tea. Miss Davis, Mrs Smith came to see me. I & Geo walked to White Cliff with them by moonlight.' The beautiful harbour setting, which has changed little to this day, obviously inspired Cooke whose diary that month lists numerous paintings begun in Axmouth.
