Watercolour on paper, 38x28cm, framed with anti-reflective UltraVue UV70 glass and an ivory black frame
This atmospheric piece captures the rugged soul of Borrowdale in the Lake District. The name originates from the Old Norse Borgar (Fort) and Dalr (Valley), referring to the ancient Iron Age hillfort at Castle Crag. The painting’s moody washes and misty peaks reflect the biblical "high places" where heaven meets earth. It mirrors the "deep calls to deep" majesty of the Cumbrian wilderness—a landscape of ancient stone and solitary beauty.
