This type of mountain scenery was known at the time as Sublime landscape, and was admired for its awe-inspiring qualities. In this scene, a zigzag movement into the distance is created by the meandering river. The careful balance of the forms at each side of the picture follows a traditional compositional style. The overall bluish colouring and inked details are typical of John Glover\'s technique; ); 穢 Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums; English, out of copyright.
