John FRS Burnet

John FRS Burnet is a British Romanticism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

John FRS Burnet painted quiet English scenes in watercolor around 1809, when Hastings was still small enough to see the Channel from the lanes. In Cottage near Hastings he shows a thatched roof leaning into the mist, the fence leaning too, as if the whole yard might drift into the sea. You can almost smell the salt in the paper. Next, tap Cottage near Hastings to step inside its low door.
