About the piece
Painted in 1847 by James Baker Pyne, this Romantic landscape depicts the entrance to the Menai Strait with a masterly handling of atmosphere. A brilliant, sun-lit rock formation stands in stark contrast to a dark, towering rain cloud, while small figures animate the foreground path leading toward the misty waters.
