About the artwork:
In this painting, Maitland likely captures a scene from Kensington Gardens, one of London’s famous Royal Parks, focusing on "The Lady's Mile" — a popular walking path in the park. This path was known for being a fashionable spot for strolling, particularly among women of the higher social classes during the late Victorian and Edwardian eras.
