Liber Studiorum: Dumblain Abbey, Scotland

Joseph Mallord William Turner

Cleveland Museum of Art

Brown and white image of a ruined Gothic abbey on a hillside. The abbey is on the left side. The abbey's architecture features a square tower on the left with a small window on each of four sides, and a long, low building to the right with many tall, narrow windows. The hillside is covered with trees and bushes. In the foreground, a riverbank with four women and a child. The women wear long, old-fashioned dresses. The riverbank has several large rocks. The sky has some clouds. The image is sepia-toned with a white border around it. The title at the bottom reads "DUMBLAIN ABBEY, SCOTLAND".
