About the piece
This 1825 landscape by Richard Parkes Bonington showcases the artist's celebrated ability to capture light and atmosphere in the French countryside. The composition uses a screen of tall, sun-dappled trees to frame a distant vista of Rouen, with its iconic gothic spires visible across the water, creating a sense of depth and tranquility typical of the Romantic era.
