In the second state, exhibited at the R.E. 1910.
Angle Tarn is considered one of the most beautiful spots in the Lake District. Alfred Wainwright described it as “among the best of Lakeland tarns”.
Holroyd greatly enjoyed walking in the Lake District and the subjects of his plates of the Lakeland are usually of remote places only reachable on foot.
Provenance: by descent from the artist to his widow Lady Holroyd; to their son Michael; to Michael’s godson. |
