The Turner Gold Medal Prize Landscape, by F. Walton, 1864. Creator: Mason Jackson
The Turner Gold Medal Prize Landscape, by F. Walton, 1864. Engraving of a painting. 'The scene...is one of those among the Surrey hills so well known to the landscape-painters of the metropolis. The view is taken from one of the hollows in the side of Leith Hill, looking towards Aldershott, Guildford is just discernible in the distance, and on the horizon is faintly traceable the peculiar contour of the hill and landmark known as the Hog's Back. The road descending the declivity of the hill from the immediate foreground is deeply cut into the marl of the district, the warm, dusky, golden hues of which afford so fine a contrast to the luxuriant greens of the foliage. To the right is a breast-high fern-brake which the hedger trims by the footpath. High on each side, with their roots exposed by the crumbling banks, are young chestnut, ash, and other trees, and through and beyond their lower leaves and boughs in shadow the sunlight glints and quivers magically. Down the road a farmer's daughter or dairymaid drives cows to the farmyard, to new grazing, or their nightly inclosure; and at the very bottom of the hill nestles a most picturesque farmstead... Beyond, the blue distance rolls away to the ranges of pale, far-off hills'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864

Celebrating British beauty: The Turner Gold Medal Prize Landscape (1864)
Step into a serene English countryside with this exquisite print, capturing the essence of F. Walton's painting as it won the prestigious Turner Gold Medal Prize in 1864. This idyllic scene unfolds from Leith Hill, overlooking Aldershott and Guildford in the distance. The warm golden hues of the marl district provide a striking contrast to the lush greens surrounding us.
Notice how sunlight filters through young trees' leaves and boughs, casting magical shadows on the road below. A farmer's daughter or dairymaid tends to her cows as they make their way down the hillside towards new grazing grounds. In the distance, picturesque farmsteads nestle among rolling hills of pale blue.
This landscape print is a testament to Britain's rich artistic heritage and its ability to evoke feelings of tranquility and connection with nature.
