More about this scene
A young woman watches her husband painting a watercolour. In the background are the romantic ruins of the Augustinian priory, and to the right are the tumbling waters of the River Wharfe. Turner and Landseer are just two of the many painters who have been drawn to the sublime scenery around the abbey. Bolton Abbey is rich in prospects for the artistic eye: there are the stepping stones across the river, the deep green hanging woods, the lively bubbling waters, and the ancient stones of the abbey itself.
