Sull’opera
John William Inchbold (1830-1888) was a contemporary of the group of painters known as the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood (active between 1848 and 1853). During the time in his career from which this watercolour dates, he adopted their ideal of meticulous attention to detail. He also followed the advice of the artist and critic John Ruskin to 'go to nature, rejecting nothing, selecting nothing'. It was probably Ruskin who encouraged Inchbold to make a tour of Switzerland and the Alps, where this watercolour is set.
