Margate lighthouse in gold and the Turner Contemporary in blue appear over the window, a second smaller window based on Tintern Abbey low right. Reverse purple, a self portrait of Turner and his painting of The Fighting Temeraire in field, a purple foil patch at upper right with letter T is based on the staircase at the Tate Britain, (EPM B416), a fantastic item, almost certainly the only example available to the private collector.
