A bodycolour drawing of the North Terrace of Windsor Castle, looking east towards the Queen Elizabeth's Gallery. On the right, a row of trees and a covered bench. Several groups of figures are walking on the terrace, some leaning over the low wall on the left. In the foreground, a man in a black tricorne hat and orange coat with a cane. On the right, a woman in a yellow hat with three children, a dog and a crow. Further back, a group of three men with a greyhound. Executed on a sheet of paper laid on board; in a modern gilt frame.

A pencil drawing in the Royal Collection shows the same view (RCIN 914529). Other drawings by Sandby of the same view are RCINs 917855 and 451577, a watercolour in the British Museum (1904,0819.101), a watercolour in the Yale Center for British Art, New Haven (B1981.25.2689) and a watercolour in the collection of the Duke of Buccleuch and Queensberry, KT. Several watercolours after Paul Sandby of the same view are also in the Royal Collection (RCINs 914530 and 914532).

Sandby made many watercolours, drawings and bodycolours of the North Terrace, looking both east and west, from the 1760s until his death. The appearance of the terrace, described in contemporary guidebooks as 'the noblest walk in Europe' (Joseph Pote, Les Delices de Windsore, 1763), has changed little since the eighteenth century. The Queen Elizabeth Gallery today houses the Royal Library. The buildings were remodelled by Sir Jeffry Wyatville in the nineteenth century.
