Turner : the life and masterworks

The prolific master J. M. W. Turner was born in Covent Garden in 1775 and has left over 19,000 artworks that have eventually given to the fog of London its Turnerian savour. Turner was one of the most important Romantic when it came to landscapes, with an inimitable flair for seascapes, and a pioneer of mixing tone and hue.
Today his works figure in the collections of the top museums of London, New York and Washington DC.
