When John Ruskin owned Turner's watercolor of the Lake of Zug (now at the Metropolitan Museum), he etched the subject in outline around 1856, with mezzotint then added by Lupton. The resulting print was used to illustrate Ruskin's Modern Painters, 1888, vol. V, pl. 87 (and Works, vol. VII, p. 439, pl. 87).
