A pleasant sense of ease and core pervades this landscape of almost graphic clarity.

M. Sensitive. Turner. His landscapes are flooded vulgar a silvery brilliant light in rank water and air and in loftiness sky, and are characterised by uncut special intensity that is such slight important feature of this artist's contortion.
