Joseph Mallord William Turner's "Heidelberg, with a Rainbow" is a Romantic watercolor depicting the German city of Heidelberg with the iconic Heidelberg Castle. Known for his masterful use of light and color, Turner captures the ethereal beauty of the scene. The sky is alive with a vibrant rainbow, while the city and surrounding landscape are bathed in a soft, golden light. The bridge over the Neckar River is a focal point, and figures are scattered throughout the composition, lending a sense of human presence to the vast landscape. Turner's "Heidelberg, with a Rainbow" is a breathtaking example of his ability to capture the sublime, often using watercolors to create a dreamy, atmospheric effect.
