EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "View of Sion, Valais, from the Chateau de Valere" takes us back to the enchanting Swiss landscape of the 19th century. Painted by John Ruskin in approximately 1863, this watercolor and bodycolour masterpiece showcases his exceptional talent for capturing nature's beauty. The image transports us to a picturesque valley surrounded by majestic mountains. As our eyes wander through the scene, we are drawn to the charming town nestled amidst this mountainous backdrop. The rooftops of quaint houses dotting the landscape create a sense of warmth and coziness. Standing tall among these buildings is an impressive spire belonging to a grand cathedral. Its presence adds a touch of spirituality and architectural splendor to this already breathtaking view. A river gracefully winds its way through the town, reflecting both natural light and man-made structures along its banks. Ruskin's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke on paper. His use of watercolors brings life and vibrancy to each element within this composition, making it feel almost tangible. Now preserved at Yale Center for British Art as part of Paul Mellon Collection in USA, this artwork was formerly known as "View of Baden in Switzerland". It serves as a timeless reminder that even centuries later, nature's wonders continue to inspire artists around the world.
