J.M.W. Turner was considered a controversial figure in his day, but is now widely regarded as one of the greatest landscape painters in the history of art, creating compelling and atmospheric work in oil and watercolour as well as being skilled printmaker. Commonly known as 'the painter of light', his work is regarded as a romantic preface to Impressionism.
Drawing mainly on works in Tate's unparalleled collection, this lavishly illustrated book provides a general survey of Turner as a master artist. Published to coincide with a major touring exhibition in Australia and Japan, the book also considers his work in relation to colonial art of the time, as well as the importance of the print market and discussions on Turner's methods and materials.
with essays from key academics and a detailed biography, this comprehensive study is a welcome addition for the general reader on Turner's oeuvre, his importance within the development of British art and his place as the figurehead of Tate's national collection.

Focusing on the extensive collection of his oil paintings, watercolours, and sketchbooks housed at Tate Britain, this book delves into the innovative creative processes that have inspired numerous artists across generations, spanning from London to Australia. Turner?s artistic journey unfolded during a dramatic period of political change and industrial development. His oeuvre encapsulates not only the turmoil of his time but also the tranquil beauty of landscapes, such as the Thames Valley and the pastoral splendour of ?Capability? Brown?s park at Petworth. The stunning watercolours included in the book reflect Turner?s extensive travels throughout Britain and Europe, culminating in his atmospheric depictions of Venice and the Swiss landscape. This book serves as an insightful resource for those interested in understanding how Turner?s artistic vision evolved over four decades, blending elements of both the chaotic and serene aspects of nature. By examining Turner's mastery through his sketches and completed works, readers gain an appreciation for the technical and emotional depth present in his art, ensuring that his influence on the art world remains significant.
