SD2498 : Seathwaite Tarn (after Alfred Heaton Cooper)
taken 3 years ago, 3 km from Cockley Beck, Cumbria, England
Seathwaite Tarn (after Alfred Heaton Cooper)
Alfred Heaton Cooper painted Seathwaite Tarn before the dam was built in 1907. His picture can easily be found on the Internet. This photograph is close to the same view. The photograph shows the dam, and the water level is higher than in Heaton Cooper's day. Heaton Cooper's picture (at least in its reproductions) is squeezed in horizontally, but is otherwise a very accurate depiction of the scene.
