Turner "Eruption of Vesuvius" (1817) Yale Centre for British Art, New Haven
"Instead of photographs of Chartres Cathedral, the Fountains of Saint-Cloud, of Vesuvius, she would inquire of Swann whether some great painter had not depicted them, and preferred to give me photographs of "Chartres Cathedral" after Corot, of the "Fountains of Saint-Cloud" after Hubert Robert, and of "Vesuvius" after Turner." — Swann's Way
