Title
The Island of Aran [Arran] from Bute
Description
A wide view towards the mountainous peaks of Arran from the shores of the Isle of Bute. A road winds its way through the trees and hills, where sheep graze, to the shore where people gather between a number of small cottages. Two boats sit in the bay and appear to be unloading goods for transport. In the straight between the two islands, more boats dot the water.
