"Narrative image of two boys going fishing with a fishing pole and a basket. John Phillip (1817-67) was a native of Aberdeenshire and trained in London. His earlier work is rather in the manner of David Wilkie's early rural genre. Later following numerous trips to Spain and the renown achieved of the subsequent Spanish subjects he acquired the sobriquet 'Spanish Phillip.'"
