Artist & Mountaineer E.T. Compton died in 1921. As a profound loner & lifelong social distancing practitioner, nothing would please me more right now than to escape to the Alps. Alone.

There's some bad weather approaching in this watercolour - Snowstorm, Mont Cenis by J M W Turner - inscribed with the date, 15th January 1820 and 'Passage'. Not a good day to attempt a drive through the Alps!
