Note du spécialiste

The present drawing is after a watercolour in the Turner Bequest (D24737), executed c. 1832 during Turner's journey along the Seine for his 1834 volume of Turner’s Annual Tour: Wanderings by the Loire and Seine (1833–5; later reissued as Rivers of France). Turner made five colour studies in bodycolour of Tancarville, of which four share the limited palette, loose application of paint, and rising sun seen here.
