Painted while staying at Dunrobin Castle, the estate of the Duke of Sutherland, Churchill chose to set his easel behind a tree where he likely thought of it as a framing device, adding a layer of depth, creating a stronger sense of foreground, middle ground, and background, enhancing the three-dimensionality of the picture. Churchill painted at both Dunrobin as well as the Duke’s Sutton Place estate, later the home of John Paul Getty.<br><br>As Mary Soames describes it in her book, Winston Churchill, His Life as a Painter, “1921 had been a year of heavy personal tidings” for Churchill and his family, as he lost both his mother, Jennie Cornwallis-West, and his beloved child, Marigold, aged nearly four. In a letter to his wife Clementine, Churchill wrote, “… Many tender thoughts, my darling one of you and yr sweet kittens. Alas I keep on feeling the hurt of the Duckadilly [Marigold’s pet name].” That Churchill chose to stay with the Duke and Duchess at Dunrobin just after Marigold’s death speaks to their close friendship and his fondness for the area, including Loch Choire.

צ'רצ'יל, שצויר בעת שהותו בטירת דונרובין, אחוזתו של הדוכס מסאת'רלנד, בחר להציב את כן הציור שלו מאחורי עץ, שם ככל הנראה חשב עליו כעל מכשיר מסגור, המוסיף שכבת עומק, יוצר תחושה חזקה יותר של חזית, אמצע ורקע, ומעצים את התלת ממדיות של התמונה. צ'רצ'יל צייר הן בדנרובין והן באחוזת סאטון פלייס של הדוכס, לימים ביתו של ג'ון פול גטי.

כפי שמרי סואמס מתארת זאת בספרה "וינסטון צ'רצ'יל, חייו כצייר", "1921 הייתה שנה של בשורות אישיות כבדות" עבור צ'רצ'יל ומשפחתו, שכן הוא איבד את אמו, ג'ני קורנווליס-ווסט, ואת בתו האהובה, מריגולד, כמעט בת ארבע. במכתב לאשתו קלמנטיין כתב צ'רצ'יל: "... הרבה מחשבות רכות, יקירתי וחתלתולים מתוקים. אבוי, אני ממשיך להרגיש את הכאב של הדאקדילי (שם חיית המחמד של ציפורני חתול)". העובדה שצ'רצ'יל בחר להישאר עם הדוכס והדוכסית בדונרובין מיד לאחר מותה של מריגולד מעידה על ידידותם הקרובה וחיבתו לאזור, כולל לוך צ'ואר. אין זה מפתיע שצ'רצ'יל העניק את הציור במתנה לדוכס סאתרלנד
