Description

Mount Taranaki on the left in the distance. Two cottages in a clearing backed by tall trees in the middle ground, with fenced in gardens. In the foreground a field with sheep and cattle and hay being hauled on a cart by oxen.

The artist is very likely to be Hannah Stephenson Smith who drew views of a later family home in Taranaki, and was also the sister of the author of the book in which this view appeared as the frontispiece.
