Dark cirrostratus, 1803-1811
UIG5102119 Dark cirrostratus, 1803-1811 by Howard, Luke (1772-1864); (add.info.: Dark cirrostratus, 1803-1811. Blue wash cloud study by Luke Howard FRS. Ordering and classification were important features of Enlightenment science. Fascinated since childhood by the weather, and clouds in particular, Luke Howard (1772-1864) classified and named different cloud types between 1803 and 1811, providing sketches for these later illustrations. His work is believed to have influenced many of the landscape painters of the Romantic era, including Turner and Constable. Although never trained as a scientist, Howard's contribution to the developing science of meteorology led to him being made a fellow of the Royal Society in 1821. His terminology and symbols are still largely used to describe clouds today. On loan to the Science Museum from the Royal Meteorological Society. ©SSPL/Royal Meteorological Society); SSPL/UIG

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Dark cirrostratus, 1803-1811" by Luke Howard showcases the artist's fascination with weather and clouds. Luke Howard, a self-taught meteorologist, classified and named various cloud types between 1803 and 1811, providing sketches for later illustrations like this one. His work greatly influenced landscape painters of the Romantic era such as Turner and Constable. In this blue wash cloud study, Howard captures the essence of dark cirrostratus clouds with remarkable precision. The intricate details in his preparatory sketch reveal his keen observation skills and artistic talent. The use of watercolor paints adds depth to the image, creating an ethereal atmosphere that mirrors the mysterious nature of these clouds. Howard's contribution to meteorology led to him being recognized as a fellow of the Royal Society in 1821 despite lacking formal scientific training. His terminology and symbols are still widely used today to describe different cloud formations. On loan from the Royal Meteorological Society, this artwork is currently displayed at the Science Museum. Its presence serves as a testament to both Howard's significant impact on meteorology and his influence on art during the 19th century. This print not only captures a beautiful moment in nature but also represents an important milestone in scientific discovery. It reminds us of how art can intersect with science, inspiring new perspectives and understanding within both fields.
