Joseph Mallord William Turner 1775–1851
Folio 8 Recto:
Blank
D23896
Turner Bequest CCLIV 8
Inscribed by John Ruskin in red ink ‘8’ bottom right
Stamped in black ‘CCLIV – 8’ bottom right
 
Accepted by the nation as part of the Turner Bequest 1856
A misprint in Finberg’s 1909 Inventory implies that there are two pages numbered CCLIV 8.1 The correct one lists the page as ‘Blank’ and the other confuses the page with folio 3 recto (D23890; Turner Bequest CCLIV 3) with the title, ‘Landscape with trees and bridge. Part of leaf is torn and the drawing is continued on p.4’.
