Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Catalogue of Examples: Arranged for Elementary Study in the University Galleries
Chosen in farther illustration of the pensiveness of the chiaroscurist school, and as a faultless example of Turner's later and most accomplished work. It is painted wholly in solid colour, as No. 2 is painted wholly in transparent; and the two drawings together show the complete manage ment of colours soluble in water, or thin liquid of any kind, and laid on grounds which are to be made to con tribute to the effect. The lights in the first drawing, and the gray sky and water in the second, are of course both the grounds left, white and gray.
