Dans le Pré oil Conrad fell in love with19th century English School fine oil painting on canvas monogrammed "MJ" in the lower right, which appears as a symbol. The work is smooth to the touch. A countryside view with visible brushstrokes and controlled volumes. The wide sky which fills two thirds of the work has an effusive light, and creates an interesting duality with the elements on the ground which provides dynamism and relief. A fine and near perfect example of 1800's English School
