This painting is a
vivid, detailed landscape depicting a flock of sheep grazing along the chalk
cliffs of Sussex. Bathed in golden light, the scene combines natural beauty
with symbolic meaning, emphasizing the vulnerability of England’s borders. The
sheep, some straying close to the cliff edge, suggest neglect and lack of
protection. Painted with the meticulous realism the work contrasts pastoral
serenity with subtle political commentary, reflecting concerns about national
security during a time of perceived foreign threats.
