Uncover Joseph Mallord William Turner (1775–1851), ‘the painter of light’. Turner worked in print, watercolour and oils to create land and seascapes that pulsated with life, light and colour – as if the sun was casting rays from within the frame. Part of the Taschen Basic Art series, this book details Turner’s illustrious, wide-ranging repertoire, which combined traditional genre painting with radical early modernism. Written by Michael Bockemühl, it features a concise biography and approximately 100 illustrations.
