The company's camp at Monkton, near Steenwerck
Description
Depicts an established camp with buildings, fenced areas and a road along the immediate foreground. The camp - covered in snow - is quiet and unpopulated. There is a solemnity to this image, but it is somewhat unsettling with the absence of any figures or sign of life.
