Export Ban on Turner

JMW Turner - Lake of Lucerne, from the Landing Place at Fluelen, looking towards Bauen and Tell's Chapel, Switzerland (ca 1815)Another export ban within a week! On this occasion it's been imposed on a watercolour by JMW Turner worth £2m: Lake of Lucerne, from the Landing Place at Fluelen, looking towards Bauen and Tell's Chapel, Switzerland (c. 1815). Earlier this year £4.95m was raised to keep Turner's The Blue Rigi in Britain (CLICK). So there's a good chance this one can be saved too.
