專家說明

Birket Foster showed Scottish watercolours at the Royal Water-colour Society in almost every year of his thirty-nine years as an exhibitor there. He stayed at a specially converted cottage at Pittlochry, near the Grampian mountains, where he worked on watercolours commissioned from him by dealers, such as the series executed for the Messrs. Tooth in 1869.

Dalmally is a tranquil village located in Argyll and Bute, Scotland, very near Loch Awe in the south west Highlands.
