Gowing, Lawrence Turner: Imagination and Reality

From Wikipedia: Joseph Mallord William Turner was an English Romantic landscape painter, watercolourist and printmaker. Turner was considered a controversial figure in his day, but is now regarded as the artist who elevated landscape painting to an eminence rivaling history painting. Although renowned for his oil paintings, Turner is also one of the greatest masters of British watercolour landscape painting. He is commonly known as "the painter of light" and his work regarded as a Romantic preface to Impressionism. From the jacket review: "These pictures, from the last twenty years of Turner's life, revealed potentialities in painting that did not reappear until our time. This survey includes many works which have never left the British national collection, to which Turner bequeathed them. A number have not been exhibited before and with them are masterpieces from American collections; together they gave a comprehensive view of Turner's astonishingly original achievement. His whole range in his final years is presented - the exhibited paintings and those which were kept in his studio, the watercolours, the intimate sketchbooks and the notes of his technical researches - with the minimum of his earlier work needed to place them in perspective."
