Ruskins view

This scene was painted by the artist JMW Turner in 1822 and the picture so impressed the 19th century art critic, social theorist, painter and poet John Ruskin, that he wrote:
‘I do not know in all my country, still less in France or Italy, a place more naturally divine.’

In 1875, Ruskin described the panorama as ‘one of the loveliest views in England, therefore in the world’.

View in large please.
