This painting is a view of Arenig Fawr in North Wales. Augustus John and his friend James Dickson Innes both worked around Arenig near Bala in 1911/1912. The mountain is the subject of pictures by Innes in the National Museum of Wales, Tate Gallery, Fitzwilliam Museum, Glynn Vivian Art Gallery, Swansea and numerous other public collections. Arenig Fawr (2,800 ft) is the only mountain in Wales with twin peaks. The stream below is called Afon Amnodd-Bwll. Born in Tenby, Pembrokeshire, John studied at the Slade School between 1894 and 1898. He was an outstandingly successful student, winning a Scholarship in 1896 and the Summer Composition Prize two years later. His first one-man exhibition was at the Carfax Gallery in 1899, when he also started exhibiting at the New English Art Club.
