The sheer fun and delight of messing about in boats and family ferry rides on the lakes in the Lake District is captured in this colourful John Dyer painting of Ambleside Pier on Lake Windermere. The artist visited the Lakes during his travels around England in the summer and was immediately drawn to the ferry boats and fun of the area. A perfect celebration of a day out on Lake Windermere.
