Liber Studiorum: Mt. St. Gothard

Joseph Mallord William Turner

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image is a landscape drawing of a mountainous scene. A rocky mountain pass with steep cliffs on both sides is depicted. A horse-drawn carriage or covered wagon is shown on a dirt path between the cliffs. The cliffs are rugged and have some vegetation. The background features more mountains with snow on them. The sky appears cloudy. The drawing is brown and gray with no bright colors. The image is framed by a border around the drawing. The bottom of the image contains small text. The image appears to be an older piece of art, possibly from the 19th century.
