Presentation on:“ The creation of the
Famous British artist
Joseph Turner”
Joseph Mallord William Turner (23
April 1775 – 19 December 1851) was an
English Romantic landscape painter, watercolourist and
printmaker, whose style can be said to have laid
the foundation for Impressionism. Although Turner was considered a controversial figure in
his day, he is now regarded as the artist
who elevated landscape painting to an eminence rivalling history painting.
His work was exhibited when he was still a teenager. His entire life was devoted to his
art. Unlike many artists of his era, he was
successful throughout his
career.

JMW Turner died on December 19, 1851, and at
his own request he was buried in St. Paul's
Cathedral.Turner's will, which was
under litigation for many years, left more than 19,000 watercolors, drawings, and oils to the British nation.
Most of these works are in the National Gallery and the Tate Gallery, London. Many
of Turner's oils have deteriorated badly.
