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.
