Over one hundred and forty years after his death, Turner's reputation as perhaps the greatest of all British painters remains as strong as ever. The popularity of the Turner watercolour exhibition shown at the National Gallery of Scotland every January remains equally undiminished, over ninety years after Henry Vaughan bequeathed thirty-eight of the artist's watercolours to Edinburgh. This new publication offers, for the first time, a catalogue of the whole of the permanent collection of Turner's works. Several drawings, which have not appeared in the recent literature on Turner, are included, in addition to the well known watercolours of the Vaughan Bequest and the vignette Illustrations to the Poetical Works of Thomas Campbell." SELLING POINTS: This catalogue offers, for the first time, a catalogue of the whole of the permanent collection of Turner's works Includes the prints from which so many of his drawings were made Many of the works featured have not previously appeared in recent literature on Turner 64 colour & 77 b/w illustrations
J.M.W. Turner (1775-1851) conducted a love affair with Italy throughout his professional life. He was enchanted by its climate, landscapes, architecture and art. This richly illustrated book sets out to explore this complex and enduring relationship.
1998 marks the 40th anniversary of the bequest to the British Museum by the collector Robert Wylie Lloyd (1868-1958) of fifty of Turner's finest watercolours. This book has been published to accompany a special exhibition of the collection.
"The exhibition 'J.M.W. Turner' [has been] organised by the National Gallery of Art, Washington, the Dallas Museum of Art and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, in association with Tate Britain, London"--T.p. verso.
This book is about a group of Victorian British writers and artists (Darwin, Stevenson, Gaskell, Ruskin, Pater, Brown and Turner) whose work emerges from recollection and whose texts embody the experience of nostalgia. The study concentrates on the longing for a past that traverses the span of these writers' and artists' own lifetime. It examines their particular experience of the nostalgic moment and provides an occasion to re-examine the idea of nostalgia and to reflect on the act of recollection.
Volume 1-35, works. Volume 36-37, letters. Volume 38 provides an extensive bibliography of Ruskin's writings and a catalogue of his drawings, with corrections to earlier volumes in George Allen's Library Edition of the Works of John Ruskin. Volume 39, general index.
J.M.W. Turner (1775-1851) is considered Britain's greatest painter. While he is best known for his stunning oils, Turner also created major works in watercolor, many of which rival his oils in their breadth of scale, depth of tone, richness of color, and wealth of detail. This handsome volume, published on the 150th anniversary of Turner's death to accompany an unparalleled exhibition of his finished watercolors at the Royal Academy of Arts, London, is a milestone in Turner scholarship.Eric Shanes, a well-known expert on Turner and curator of the related exhibition, places the artist's watercolors in the wider context of his painted work and provides individual commentaries on the approximately 200 lush colorplates. Evelyn Joll investigates the market forces that brought Turner's watercolors into being, while Andrew Wilton analyzes their extraordinary effect on the art of later watercolorists. Finally, Ian Warrell discusses the critical reception to the work of this prodigiously talented artist. Turner: The Great Watercolours will stand at the forefront of thinking on Turner for years to come.
