Alpine By Joseph Mallord William Turner

Alpine is by Joseph Mallord William Turner. The painting shows a mountainous region, the area contains a river between the two mountains. In the painting you see the people down at the bottom and a boat in the river. These people aren't painted clearly because the focus of the painting is the scenery. The painting doesn't contain bright colors. The colors are unclear and in the background the color becomes dull and foggy to show the fog at the higher altitudes. The painting has a even rhythm with the brush strokes being abstract. The colors of the painting fade out in the back to represent the fog. The colors are brighter in the front and express the bright colors of the surrounding mountains.
