Description: | John Varley visited Lindisfarne/Holy Island in 1808 on one of several visits to Northumberland. This picture is on the thick rough paper that Varley recommended for outdoor painting. It may have been partly painted on the spot, despite its large size. Varley's broad, warm-coloured washes show the influence of Thomas Girtin. Varley was an influential London teacher to professional and amateur artists. He also taught painting to several ladies and gentlemen from Northumberland families. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | art movement artists living in the North East watercolours other North East buildings and views art military | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
