Boasting nearly fifty paintings and watercolors, this boxed set offers the essentials of J. M. W. Turner's work, along with as a booklet detailing the artist's life and accomplishments. Known as the painter of light and fires, Turner's revolutionary works transformed nature into a canvas of emotional intensity and sublime beauty. This volume features stunning reproductions of masterpieces such as Hannibal Crossing the Alps; Vesuvius in Eruption; Rome from Mount Aventine; Castle on Height Near Geneva; and The Burning of the Houses of Lords and Commons. Full page and fold-out illustrations allow for a deep appreciation of Turner's vast, sweeping vistas, intricate details and textures, dynamic, complex compositions, and brilliant use of light and atmospheric effects. The perfect gift for fans of Romantic art and of Turner himself, this elegant boxed set captures the drama and movement that have made his work both timeless and inspirational.About the Author
