"A wooded river landscape with a ferry in the foreground and a village beyond, traditionally identified as 'On the Stour' by Frederick Waters Watts, is a quintessential example of 19th-century British landscape painting. Frederick Waters Watts (1800–1862) was an English landscape painter known for his pastoral scenes and his ability to capture the serene beauty of the English countryside. Often compared to John Constable, Watts was influenced by the Romantic movement, which emphasized the sublime and picturesque aspects of nature.

This particular painting, 'On the Stour,' is believed to depict a tranquil scene along the River Stour, a waterway that flows through the counties of Cambridgeshire, Suffolk, and Essex in England. The river has historically been a source of inspiration for many artists, including Constable, who famously painted 'The Hay Wain' along its banks. Watts' rendition captures the idyllic charm of rural life, with a ferry in the foreground suggesting a moment of daily activity and connection between communities.

The composition is marked by its lush, wooded landscape, which frames the river and leads the viewer's eye toward a distant village. The use of light and shadow in the painting highlights Watts' skill in rendering naturalistic scenes, creating a sense of depth and atmosphere. The foliage is depicted with meticulous detail, and the gentle flow of the river adds a dynamic element to the otherwise still and peaceful setting.

'A wooded river landscape with a ferry in the foreground and a village beyond' exemplifies Watts' dedication to portraying the English countryside with both accuracy and romanticism. The painting not only serves as a visual document of a specific locale but also evokes a timeless sense of tranquility and harmony with nature. It stands as a testament to Watts' artistic legacy and his contribution to the tradition of British landscape painting."
