About the piece
Created around 1845, this 'sample study' is a prime example of J.M.W. Turner's late-career fascination with light and vapor. The work depicts Zurich on a festival morning, where the bustling crowd and architectural landmarks—including the Grossmünster and the lakeside bridge—are softened by a luminous, golden mist, creating a sense of tranquil transition from night to day.
