- Landscape, colourful rolling foothills in the forground. - in the immediate forground at the bl. is a spot of green brown grasses. - past that is a varying green plateau. - then a spot of trees onward to the purple/blue mountains in the distance. - the sky fades into a yellow to green shade.“Collings typically restricted his darkest tones in this late watercolour to minimal accents -- a streak of rich sienna merging with deep blue which works as a ‘base line’ and his the key to colour relationships in the rest of his picture. The overall pastel tones and broad, open river valley view combine to produce an effect of silent and awesome beauty.” -- “Charles John Collings, 1848-1931” Catalogue Raisonne by Linda Heath

- Description
- A winter scene with dominant colours of white, green, blue, grey, and black. The foreground, which is more than half the painting, is comprised of snow, ice, shadows, two sections of the creek starting from viewer’s left, with one bush and one coniferous tree to viewer’s far middle right. The dark water of the creek is visible from the bush at the right, flows under the ice and snow, and then reappears at the left-hand centre of the painting and flows to the viewer’s left hand corner of the painting. The top-third of the painting is a bank of coniferous trees, sparsely painted on the left, becoming larger and darker towards middle and then lighter on the right as the trees further back rise to the mountain range in the background. Snow and clouds obscure the mountain tops. The sky is light grey and white.
