Description
This striking tote bag features The Wreck Buoy by Joseph Mallord William Turner. This practical bag has sturdy, black shoulder straps and a wide gusset making it ideal for carrying around all your essentials.
The art critic John Ruskin, a great admirer of Turner, described this painting as, "...the last oil he painted before his noble hand forgot its cunning." It is a re-working of an earlier picture and a summation of Turner’s concern with the sea. The artist’s pessimistic view of human endeavour and the fallacy of hope is symbolised by the rainbow and the wreck buoy beneath it.
