A Parkland View at Dusk. Artist: William Leighton Leitch (British, Glasgow, Scotland 1804-1883 London). Dimensions: sheet: 8 1/8 x 13 1/4 in. (20.6 x 33.6 cm). Former Attribution: Peter De Wint (British, Hanley, Stoke-on-Trent 1784-1849 London). Date: ca. 1879.Bold shadows from the late-day sun stretch across the landscape.

The slightly rough texture of the woven paper heightens the sense of atmosphere, seeming to give presence to the air. Although this drawing was once attributed to Peter de Wint, it bears at the lower right the studio stamp of William Leighton Leitch, who signed and dated a second version of this composition in 1879. A generation younger than De Wint and David Cox, Leitch carried the tradition of naturalistic landscape watercolor painting into the second half of the nineteenth century; h
