In a period carved gilt frame, glazed with glass; backboard fitted to stretcher. Kate Lowry has noted: Glue relined. Original turnovers removed at time of lining. Stretcher dates from lining. A strip 13 cm wide down the left side of the painting has been heavily repainted - this is very clear under UV. It is possible that the painting was stretched over a smaller painting at some point, subsequently restretched to its full size, and the resulting damage retouched. The pale pink ground is similar to that found in P165 Dinas Bran from Llangollen - I, Yale Center for British Art, Paul Mellon Collection, New Haven. The horizon line painted down to the distant hills and the pentimenti down the right side of the main hill are typical Wilson features. However, the white water of the river is very fussily painted and the colourful, globular figures, especially the standing man, are unlike Wilson's. The painting could be by Wilson with additions by a later hand.
