The rural idyll
• This is a new romanticised view of the countryside
• The industrial revolution prompted mass migration and rapid expansion of towns and cities
• Composition-painting is ruined by the central feature (a factory,) the colours are angry (red,) dirty (greys,) unorganised and could represent blood and the effects of pollution
