專家說明

There is a similar schematic drawing of Neuchâtel in the Ruskin Library, Lancaster University, which is inscribed 'Sketched 1863 I think invaluable now for the lines of roof of old town'.

Ruskin was in Lucerne in the autumn of 1861 and again May 1862. The same view of Lucerne, including the covered wooden Kapellbrucke, appears in a sketchbook from his visits which is now in the Beinecke Library, Yale University.

The mountains depicted are Weisshorn, Shreckhorn, Eiger, and Jungfrau.

We are grateful to Stephen Wildman for his help in preparing this catalogue entry.
