Description: | The twisted and windswept trees and the rough shapes of this view are typical features of Romantic landscapes of the 19th century. The picture is painted in David Cox's characteristic style, using broken colour to create an impression of rapidly changing light. A lively effect is created through constantly varying the shades of colour, and changes in direction of the brushstrokes. The picture may show a view in Wales, which was one of Cox's favourite places to paint. Women washing clothes add human scale to the picture. | Publisher: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Temporal: | Production date: 1843 | Source: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Creator: | David Cox | Identifier: | http://www.twmuseums.org.uk/artonline/se... | Go to resource |
