Note: This painting was acquired by John Nugent directly from Kerr, who was living in Lumsden at the time. After a rocky start to their relationship and upon Kerr learning that Nugent was a fellow artist, Kerr paid him a visit, gifting this painting as a peace offering. The two went on to develop a friendship. The landscape depicted in this painting is of an area just outside Lumsden.
