Author: Thomas Moran.Planche faite pour une exposition chez Dunthorne , Trees, Alphonse Legros (1837-1911)Procris and Cephalus (Liber Studiorum, part VIII, plate 41) February 14, 1812 Designed and etched by Joseph Mallord William Turner British Turner distilled his ideas about landscape In "Liber Studiorum" (Latin for Book of Studies), a series of seventy prints plus a frontispiece published between 1807 and 1819. To establish the compositions, he made brown watercolor drawings, then etched outlines onto copper plates. Professional engravers usually developed the tone under Turner's direction, and Clint here added mezzotint to describe a tragic couple in a wooded landscape. Ovid's "Metamorphoses" recounts how the hunter Cephalus accidentally shot his wife, the Athenian princess Cephalus, and the critic John Ruskin wrote, "I know of no landscape more purely or magnificently imaginative, or bearing more distinct evidence of the relative and simultaneous conception of the parts." The letter "H" in the upper margin places the work within Turner's category of Historical landscape.. Procris and Souvenir of Italy 1866 Camille Corot French. Souvenir of Italy.
