Produktinformationen zu „Turner Inspired “
The English romantic artist Joseph Mallord William Turner (1775-1851) was hailed as the "painter of light" for his brilliantly coloured landscapes and seascapes. He drew much influence from the French painter Claude Lorrain (c.1604-1682), who was a vital force in Turner's artistic practice from his formative years until the end of his working life. So great was Claude's influence that Turner stipulated in his will that his works hang alongside Claude's in the National Gallery. This book examines the ways in which Turner consistently strove to confront Claude's achievement and legacy. He had encountered Claude's works in salerooms and in the collections of his aristocratic patrons, and applied what he had learned to the British countryside, producing views of the Thames valley that transform it into an idyllic pastoral scene reminiscent of the Roman Campagna. For the balance of his career, Turner continued to pit himself against Claude, paying homage even as he continually sought to go beyond the accomplishments of his master.
Autoren-Porträt von Ian Warrell, Alan Crookham, Philippa Simpson
Joseph Mallord William Turner, geb. 1775 in London, studierte an der Royal Academy, wo er mit 15 Jahren erstmals ausstellte, 1802 Mitglied wurde und 1807 eine Professur übernahm. Der frühen Anerkennung seiner Malerei an der Akademie stand die Ablehnung seines Spätwerks gegenüber, das erst in dem Kunstkritiker John Ruskin einen Fürsprecher fand und vor allem später von den Impressionisten bewundert wurde. Turner lebte in London und starb dort im Jahr 1851.
