The early nineteenth-century landscape...
Illustration
The early nineteenth-century landscape painter, J. M. W. Turner, was totally devoted to
his craft. Once while crossing the Alps, the coach he was traveling in overturned. He was
marooned with the rest of the passengers in the snow as the sun was setting and the cold
settled upon them.
Turner looked at the landscape in the falling darkness, pulled out his paints and worked furiously, disregarding that his hands were freezing. He produced a brilliant watercolor of the scene.
