Description: | Pyne was greatly inspired by Turner and his landscapes have a similar intensity and power to evoke strong emotions in the viewer. He was most interested in colour rather than the harmony of nature which was a popular theme of the time. His canvases often glow with many colours, and his brushwork was considered daring and masterly. His attempts to portray his own admiration for nature's beauty and majesty is instantly appreciated by others. Castles and other grand forms of architecture feature frequently in Payne's work, serving to emphasise the elevated subject matter he often depicted.
