Norham Castle, Sunrise, watercolour By Douglas Carpenter
"A group of French painters, united in the same aesthetic aims...applying themselves with passion to
the rendering of form in movement as well as the fugitive phenomena of light, cannot forget that they have been preceded in
this path by a great master of the English, the illustrious Turner."(from a letter signed by Monet, Pissarro,
Degas, Renoir, and others)
