The Moat Island, Windsor Great Park 1754 - 1755

Thomas Sandby's "The Moat Island, Windsor Great Park" is a watercolor landscape drawing depicting a view of Windsor Great Park in England. Created between 1754 and 1755, this drawing is a beautiful example of Sandby's early work in the landscape genre. The artwork showcases his talent for capturing the natural world with delicate detail. The viewer is drawn to the lush foliage, the subtle shadows cast by the trees, and the peaceful atmosphere of the park. Sandby's work contributed to the development of watercolor landscape painting in the 18th century. This drawing is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
