The captivating image depicts a panoramic view of Strangford Lough, a large, shallow inlet of the Irish Sea, as seen from the hillside at Slievnagridle.

Moore's masterful use of watercolour on paper brings the scene to life, with intricate details of the landscape and the play of light and shadow creating a sense of depth and dimension. The artist's skillful brushstrokes capture the subtle variations in colour and texture, from the rich greens of the hills and forests to the blues and greens of the lough. The painting offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the rural landscape of Ireland during the mid-19th century. The peaceful scene contrasts with the bustling activity of the small fishing boats and sloops in the foreground, reminding us of the importance of the sea and the role it played in the lives of those who lived in the area. James Moore was a prolific artist and etcher, known for his detailed and accurate depictions of the Irish landscape.
