A watercolour on paper depicting a traditional British rural landscape by John White Milliken (1865-1951). The composition features a horse-drawn cart with figures on a dirt track leading past mature, leafy trees and thatched cottages. In the foreground, several ducks are positioned on the path near a small wooden footbridge crossing a stream. The work is executed in a naturalistic style with soft, layered washes typical of the artist’s oeuvre. The piece is signed J.W. MILLIKEN in the lower-left corner. It is presented behind glass within a deep, bevelled gilt-painted mount and an ornate, moulded gilt frame with decorative corner flourishes.
