British artist William Cooch was a true master of landscape technique and the use of light and shadow. This particular painting depicts the picturesque Houghton Bay Lake, located in Norfolk.
Bright, soft tones, smooth transitions between pastel colors, and a subtle graphic quality create an atmosphere of quiet serenity. The work clearly conveys the artist’s deep affection for these places — for nature, which rises monumentally and singularly, in all its ever-changing beauty.
