Description

A watercolour showing a view of a Highland landscape, probably on the Balmoral Estate. A valley is shown in the foreground, with a partial view of a river, probably the River Dee, shown behind to the right. Trees are shown along the river banks and in a large group to the left. A forest-covered hill is shown behind to the right, with a further hill shown in the background.
While staying at Balmoral Queen Victoria made many expeditions to local beauty spots, often sketching what she saw.
