The Burning of the House of Lords and Commons (1834), 
from an oil on canvas by Joseph Mallord William Turner (1775-1851).

 In 1834 a huge fire engulfed the Houses of Parliament.  
The blaze drew in crowds of onlookers and many artists captured the scene.
Along with thousands of other spectators, Turner himself witnessed the Burning of Parliament 
from the south bank of the River Thames, opposite Westminster. 
He made sketches using both pencil and watercolour in two sketchbooks 
from different vantage points, including from a rented boat.
