Turner Bequest CCLXXX 199
Display caption
The view depicted here has so far not been identified, and may well be fanciful, for the subject is really concerned with the mood associated with a specific time of day. Turner's title invokes the early evening when the horses are liberated from the plough and the shadows begin to lengthen.
