Painting by J. M. W. Turner
View of Richmond Hill and Bridge is an 1808 landscape painting by the British artist Joseph Mallord William Turner .[ 1] It depicts a view of Richmond Bridge in Surrey , then some miles outside London . In the distance is Richmond Hill . A few years later Turner designed and lived in Sandycombe Lodge in nearby Twickenham .
Turner presents it as a pastoral scene with bright sunshine and bathing woman and grazing sheep despite the presence of the substantial nearby settlement of Richmond . Edwin Landseer saw the painting in Turner's studio in 1808 and reviewed it. It is now in the collection of the Tate Britain in Pimlico , having been part of the Turner bequest of 1856.[ 2]
