Brian Kennedy write: 'A similar composition to An Antrim Bog (CR 525) and A Western Landscape (CR 527). Almost certainly a scene in Co. Antrim, painted in the spring of 1919 when Henry visited Cushendun. A label on the reverse reads 'TCD 9', presumably referring to Henry's 1973 Dublin & Belfast's exhibition'.
