Context:
Returning from an extended sojourn in the Swiss Alps, Turner solicited patrons for large watercolors to be based on sketches from the trip. This view was commissioned as part of the scheme by Hugh Andrew Johnstone Munro of Novar (1797-1864) in 1843, and was later owned by John Ruskin (1819-1900). Its accomplished rendering of light and atmospheric effects is characteristic of Turner's finest work.
