More about this scene

This view of the Mill House, further north along the Buckinghamshire bank, captures wonderfully the curious formality of late Victorian leisure activity as the fishermen sit stiffly in their moored punt, solemnly fishing. The men wear mostly caps and jackets while the boy on the left sports an Eton collar. The tent was no doubt erected as part of another formal leisure activity.
