Description:Elizabeth was the wife of Daniel Sidney Hasluck and they lived at The Austins. Elizabeth presented a bound volume of 28 of her watercolours to her son Ernest for Christmas in 1885. This gallery contains all 28 of those watercolours, the inscription from Elizabeth to her son and some of her other remaining watercolours held by Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery.

This watercolour is of the Round Pool.

The Hasluck's home stood on 22 acres between Island Road, Sandwell Road, Oxhill Road and was sold to Sandwell Park Colliery, eventually being demolished in 1930. The site now is Sandwell Recreation Ground.
