GEOGRAPHY IN ART

Geography is linked to many other subjects, from science to economics, from geology to sociology. To see the connction between geography and fine art, take some time to visit the BBC's Arts pages-they have a section on "Painting the weather"-,an online gallery of some of the UK's best weather pictures, such as Degas' "Jockeys in the Rain"., which you can see at the Burrell. My own favourite is Turner's Snowstorm.
There is an audio tour which you can download and listen to on Real Player.
