"Thames Backwater Near Windsor" or "Near Windsor on Thames" by Henry Hillier Parker (British, 1858 - 1930). Oil painting on canvas. Late 19th - early 20th century.

The cloud filled sky has indications of the sun's light as it passes through, and the whole piece is permeated by a dawn or pre dusk glow.
