This 1792 painting by JMW Turner is an evocative and highly romanticised depiction of the Avon Gorge. The building atop the gorge is the 1766 built Clifton Observatory. At this time it was a former windmill which was damaged in a storm.

This JMW Turner view of the Ducal Palace and the Campanile is uncharacteristically sharply drawn- a tribute to Canaletto, whom Turner has painted in the foreground, working at an easel!
