...some time before the U.S. sees a finer group of Turner watercolors than those assembled for the show. They cover all the phases of his work, from early picturesque scenes of ruins such as Tintern Abbey through the grandly managed complexities of his Alpine views with every pebble and wreath of mist in place, like The Passage of the St. Gothard, 1804, to the mists and chromatic blooms of his amazingly modern late watercolors...
...Heartbreak Hill, a devastating primary defeat when he first sought re-election as Governor in 1978.

His artistic sensibility invades his home: a papier-mache python winds through the living room, and a bright green Paraguayan tree frog croaks in a terrarium. At Christmas a wreath festooned with a rubber chicken hangs on the front door. Larson, clad usually in T shirt, jeans and running shoes, carries sketchbooks wherever he goes, doodling and jotting down phrases. But the hard labor takes place at the drawing board overlooking Union Bay, where he sits and stares, and stares and sits, until the ideas flow...
