专家说明

In August 1942, Piper visited North Yorkshire to prepare his article entitled Notes from a Yorkshire Journal for the Geographical Magazine. As well as Weathercote Cave, Piper also visited Gordale Scar and Easegill. David Fraser Jenkins notes that 'these sites had been painted in the years around 1800 by J.M.W. Turner, James Ward and other romantic artists' (exhibition catalogue, John Piper, London, Tate Gallery, 1983, p. 112).

We are very grateful to Rev. Dr. Stephen Laird for his assistance in preparing this catalogue entry.
