To celebrate #StDavidsDay, we’re sharing beautiful watercolour views of Wales. This work by J M W Turner depicts Tintern Abbey, a 12th-century Cistercian Abbey in Monmouthshire. Before entering the Royal Academy schools at age 14, Turner worked as an architectural draughtsman. This is evident in his attention to detail with the ruins of this abbey, which he visited in 1792 and 1793. Tourists of the time were as much impressed by the way that nature had reclaimed the monument as by the scale and grandeur of the buildings. Turner's blue-green washes over the abbey's far wall blend stone and leaf together. The spiralling creepers on the near arch seem to make the wind and light tangible.
