Hi Marsha, Yea, I just took a look on the internet, would love to see them in full size. I can see why you bring in Turner. There also seems to be some Venetian influence, like Canaletto. There is a great site called canalettogallery, check out some of the boats (maybe I'm stretching it a bit). I just love his detail. I have no doubt that art appears for a reason other than what art history tells us. There is something in the air.
