拍品专文

Formerly entitled 'Shrimpers on a Beach', the present watercolour was identified following the appearance of a closely related composition bearing an inscription 'Redcar' on the reverse. In 1838 De Wint exhibited a View on the Beach at Redcar, looking towards Huncliff at the Old Water-Colour Society, no. 269. It seems likely the artist made a tour of Yorkshire in the summer of 1837 as the 1838 exhibition included a total of five Yorkshire subjects. His other exhibits that year suggest he probably crossed over from Cumbria, where he must have been visiting Lowther Castle, seat of his patron the Earl of Lonsdale.
