拍品專文

Lear made one visit to Corsica in 1868 and reached Sarténé, in the south of the island on 17 April. On 18 April he wrote in his diary, immortalised in his 1870 publication Journal of a Landscape Painter in Corsica, 'I shall... try to get as many records as I can of the landscape, which is of a class rarely met with in such perfection'.
