Helen Layfield Bradley was a friend and associate of L.S. Lowry. She did not begin to produce paintings until she was 65, when she did so as a way of showing her granddaughter what life was like when she was a child. During the following decade she attained international celebrity and recognition as an artist. In 1979 she was awarded the MBE for services to art but died shortly before she was due to receive the honour from the Queen. Mrs Bradley had three exhibitions at the Mercury Gallery in London and one in Los Angeles and was much loved both sides of the Atlantic.
Her paintings typically depict scenes from Edwardian Lancashire with groups of figures, including her family and friends. A familiar figure in many of her paintings was a neighbour, Miss Carter, who wore pink. She gave her name to the first and most famous of four books of her works “And Miss Carter Wore Pink”. Her works are typically signed with a small black fly, as this one is.
Mrs Bradley’s landscape scenes are very rare and show a dreamlike quality and stunning use of color and light.

This picture is of the estuary of the River Leven in the Lake District, Cumbria, as seen from Lancashire. It shows a house where she had stayed, near to her home on the edge of the Lake District and was originally painted as a gift to her hosts.
