This painting is of Regent's Park seen from the artist's studio in nearby Gloucester Gate, the various perspectives describe the views from differing windows and from the balcony. In 1981 Berg said of his work that he paints 'in the English landscape tradition. I paint landscape because what I see outside sometimes looks unimaginably beautiful. I do so in what I am calling the English tradition because native practice is at its best when it is consistent in what it rejects and what it requires. It rejects authority or example, and it rejects logicality or method. It requires that the artist look until he can form a view then proceed by trial and error until he has given a convincing account of it.'
