One of Turners finest landscapes, which, together with the pictures on either side of it—^- A Frosty Morning (492), and Bligh Sand (496) F 66 British School. —mark a distinct period of work, between the early pictures, hUng onthe south side of the gallery, and the brilliant effects in his later style,^yhich we have just seen. Crossing the Brook has much in commonwith his later pictures, but is lower in tone. The view is a grandbut fanciful rendering of the scenery on the Tamer; a winding river,which diNides the counties of Devonshire and Cornwall, treated afterthe manner of Claude. On the left is—492.
