titled, dated and inscribed (to base) 'BALMUGO / To Willie with Love from Denis & Jane / 8-VI-88', slate
Provenance: Gift from the artist, 1988
Note: Balmungo House, near St Andrews, was left to Barns-Graham by her aunt Mary Neish in 1960, and from this point she divided her time between St Ives and Scotland. This personal gift from Mitchell to Barns-Graham is inspired by the landscape around her studio in Balmungo in Scotland.
