J. M. W. Turner: The Man Who Set Painting on Fire.
In 1802, at the age of 26, Joseph Mallord William Turner became the youngest ever member of the Royal Academy. A prolific painter and watercolourist, his paintings began by combining great historical themes with the inspired visions of nature, but his experimentation with capturing the effects of light led him swiftly towards an unusual dissolution of forms.
In this profusely illustrated book, Olivier Meslay invites us to follow the development of Turner’s incandescent art, a bridge between Romanticism and Impressionism and one of Britains’ most remarkable contributions to art.
