We are delighted to offer for sale this well executed and beautifully toned oil on canvas by the artist Charles Leslie, who has signed the painting Chas. Leslie in red in the lower left hand corner and dated it either 65 or 85. The painting depicts a loch or lake landscape at dawn, with the tops of the mountains tinged pink by the rising sun. There are a few clouds in the sky and the surface of the water is calm. There are three figures sitting by the edge of the loch by some boulders, one of whom is fishing.
