Subject: Titled verso - The Fish Ponds, near Hastings

A finely executed 19th-century watercolour by Paul Sandby Munn depicting the Fish Ponds near Hastings. The composition shows a tranquil wooded pond with gently sloping banks, fencing, and still water, rendered with careful tonal control and sensitive handling of foliage.

This view corresponds closely with a known 19th-century engraved depiction of the same location, confirming the accuracy of the site and highlighting Munn’s interest in recording identifiable local landscapes. The work exemplifies the quiet, observational style typical of English landscape watercolour during this period.
