This painting shows the area behind Stanley Spencer’s house, Fernlea, in Cookham, Berkshire. Completed after his return from service in WW1, the work is deliberately nostalgic; an elegy of sorts, his brother Sydney was killed in action in September 1918.

Stanley Spencer 'The Apple Gatherers.' This picture was painted in Wisteria Cottage in Cookham, an empty house which Spencer used as a studio. He said it was here he experienced an intense sense of connection with nature and an almost ecstatic self-awareness.
