82. A Winter Scene. The composition offers a thatched
cottage (only part of which is visible) with two casks near it,
and a frozen canal, covered with snow, extending along the
soreground; and at some distance off are a cluster of cot-
tages and the tower of the village church. The figures
which animate the scene consist of three men standing in

83. A Waterfall. This beautiful picture represents a
more open scene than usual, with a stream gliding tranquilly
along the second distance, and falling in a cascade between
rocks on the centre of the foreground ; four logs of timber
lie on a bank on the right; from hence is seen a road
leading over some rising ground, and by the side of a corn-
field ; at the extremity of which is a church. The figures
which enliven the scene, consist of a shepherd driving a ssock
of sheep through the margin of the stream, and a man, a
woman, and a boy, passing along the road. Painted in a
clear and luminous tone of colour. See No. 127, Vol. VI.
