Joseph Mallord William Turner 1775–1851
Folio 11 Recto:
Blank
D04005
Turner Bequest LXIX 11
 
Accepted by the nation as part of the Turner Bequest 1856
Finberg catalogued this page as blank,1 but it was rebound opposite part of a drawing of foliage, folio 10 verso (D40586) verso, which subsequently offset onto this leaf. The rest of that drawing does not seem to have survived the Tate Gallery flood of 1928, but with its broad India ink stump it seems to have been one of a group of which the study of weeds on folio 113 recto (D04130; Turner Bequest LXIX 114) was part.
