In an Art Journal article about Strang, Frank Newbolt declared that 'In his painting there are two obvious qualities which attract attention besides the effort to eliminated the unnecessary and ineffective. The first is the simplicity of colour; and the second, the almost indescribably effect of fine composition' (Art Journal, 1910, p. 49). Both these characteristics are visible in the refined palette and carefully-constructed composition of this painting.
