Joseph Mallord William Turner, ‘Loch Fyne, with Dunderave Castle and Distant Mountains’ 1801
Joseph Mallord William Turner 1775–1851
Folio 20 Recto:
Loch Fyne, with Dunderave Castle and Distant Mountains 1801
D03315
Turner Bequest LVII 20
Pencil on white cartridge paper prepared with a grey–buff ground, 149 x 118 mm
Inscribed by John Ruskin in red ink ‘20’ bottom right
Stamped in black ‘LVII – 20’ bottom right
 
Accepted by the nation as part of the Turner Bequest 1856
This is a continuation of the drawing on folio 19 verso opposite (D03314), with an outline sketch of a mountain ridge at the top right. Finberg’s suggestion that this is ‘Probably Inverness’1 is presumably a slip for ‘Inveraray’.
