Liber Studiorum: The Woman and the Tambourine

Joseph Mallord William Turner

Cleveland Museum of Art

Sepia-toned etching of a landscape with a woman standing on a dirt path, holding a tambourine. She wears a long dress and has dark hair. The woman stands on the left side, with her right hand holding the tambourine up by her shoulder. To her left, a seated man holds a child. In the background, a bridge spans a body of water, with buildings and trees on the right side. The left side features a hill with trees, and a cloudy sky above. The image is surrounded by a white border. The scene depicts a serene, natural setting with figures.
