EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Snowdon, An Approaching Storm" created in 1853 by James Ward, we are transported to the breathtaking landscape of Snowdonia. The artist's skilled use of pen and grey wash on paper brings to life the dramatic scene before us. As our eyes wander across the image, we are drawn towards the majestic mountaintop that dominates the composition. Snowdon stands tall and proud, its rugged peaks reaching towards the heavens. The Welsh landscape unfolds beneath it, a patchwork of greens and browns that stretches as far as the eye can see. But what truly captivates us is the approaching storm. Dark clouds gather ominously overhead, casting an eerie light over the land below. We can almost feel a chill in the air as we witness nature's power about to unleash itself upon this serene setting. This drawing transports us to a moment frozen in time - a fleeting glimpse into both beauty and danger coexisting harmoniously within nature's embrace. It serves as a reminder of our own insignificance when faced with such grandeur. Displayed at Yale Center for British Art as part of their esteemed Paul Mellon Collection, this artwork invites contemplation and reflection on mankind's relationship with our natural surroundings. Through Ward's masterful technique and attention to detail, he has immortalized not only Snowdon but also our connection to these awe-inspiring landscapes forever captured on paper.
