This is a large oil painting on canvas by the listed British artist Francis E. JAMIESON, who flourished between 1885 and 1940 and is signed with his pseudonym W. Richards in the lower right hand corner. The painting depicts a view of a Scottish loch with the gushing waters of a small river in the foreground. The loch is backed by the Scottish mountains, tinged pink by the setting sun. One the bracken covered slopes to the right of the river, there are several flocks of sheep. On this occasion we do not know the location.

Francis Jamieson was a painter in oil and watercolour of highland landscapes and coastal scenes. (The work of this highly prolific artist is curious since the oils and watercolours have two quite distinctive styles and subject matter. The oil paintings are most fequently seen and these are highland landscapes or loch scenes - sometimes they appear to be signed with pseudonyms such as 'W. Richards' and 'Phil Hips' - the location is usually inscribed on the reverse. The watercolours are often coastal scenes with boats and figures on a shore, painted in a more traditional Victorian style, and possibly pre-date the oils. F. E. Jamieson's beach scenes were published as postcards around 1920 by G. Ajelli & Co. of London on a textured card to give the appearance of an oil. Jamieson is known to have travelled widely in the South of England between the wars selling his work but does not appear to have exhibited.) This quote in parentheses is taken from Jeremy Wood's book 'Hidden Talents - A Dictionary of Neglected Artists Working 1880-1950'.
