Notes
This pool on the White River near Ceres was a favourite picnic site and swimming place for the Welz family who were often accompanied by friends and fellow artists such as Cecil Higgs. Here Jean Welz's sure draughtsmanship and mastery of paint create an inviting image. Using deep viridian greens for the foliage and trees and Prussian blue tones in the water he suggests a sunny and secluded piece of unspoilt nature in which to enjoy some leisure time.
