'Despite the absence of human figures, an unnerving drama is enacted. Elsewhere it is the land that is unsettling, the hills less rolling than rocking and tossing with the energy of moving water. It is no wonder that a drawing made on a subsequent visit should be labelled Sea of Peat (SB23:73-74).'
