Description: | The top of the castle wall at Barnard Castle provided the viewing point for this view over the River Tees. This was already a well-known picturesque spot in the 19th century. The setting sun casts a golden glow over the view, dissolving the forms of the landscape in light. This approach to landscape painting was influenced by the pictures of JMW Turner. Thomas Miles Richardson was Newcastle's leading landscape painter at this time. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | art movement other North East art North East artists | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
