Book The Life of J  M  W  Turner  R  a  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Life of J M W Turner R a Classic Reprint written by Philip Gilbert Hamerton and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of J. M. W. Turner, R. A I have been the more willing to write a biography of Turner that it is impossible to study him without encountering the greatest of all problems in art criticism the relation of art to nature. Of all landscape-painters he is at once the most comprehensive in his study of nature and the most independent of nature, the most observant of truth and also, in a certain sense, the most untrue. This double life of Turner, as observer and artist, compels us to distinguish between art and mere observation from the very beginning, under peril of falling into snares which the subject itself has laid for us. We must understand that art and nature are not the same world, but two worlds which only resemble each other and have many things in common. Turner, with the instinct of genius, understood this from the first. Turner is a most instructive subject for the student of art, because he is always and above all things the artist. With all his study of objects and effects, he was never a naturalist. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

  • ISBN : 0500775907
  • Pages : 294 pages

Download or read book Turner Second World of Art written by Graham Reynolds and published by Thames & Hudson. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With clear writing, this is the ideal introduction to J. M. W. Turner’s life and work for anyone interested in British painting in its golden age. Few British artists have ever achieved such a wide range of style in oil painting, watercolor, drawing, and engraving as J. M. W. Turner. This classic book in the World of Art series traces the artist’s career from youthful, picturesque views and watercolors of Gothic ruins, to romantic landscapes and historical compositions, to the darker abstracts of his later career. Though these late works were incomprehensible to his contemporaries, Turner is understood today as one of the greatest British painters because of these pioneering explorations into abstraction, which prefigured the art of the twentieth century. In Turner, Graham Reynolds weaves together the artist’s biography and criticism of his work through all phases of his career, paying particular attention to the importance of foreign travel and the influence of Claude Lorrain and Nicolas Poussin. First published in 1969, Turner has long served as an outstanding introduction to Turner’s life and art. Now with full-color illustrations and a new introduction by David Brown, this updated and revised edition reflects recent discoveries and interpretations of Turner’s work, and will serve as the best available study of the artist for a new generation of readers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of J. M. W. Turner, R. A: Founded on Letters and Papers Furnished by His Friends and Fellow-Academicians The marvellous combination of such a genius with such a nature it was my duty, as a man of truth, to record; and I did so very imperfectly, no diaries or journals of the painter's having been preserved many of his old friends refusing to furnish me with any facts that revealed the darker side of his character, and others declining to give me any assistance at all. With the aid, however, of his surviving engravers, who did not love him sufficiently to conceal the bitter truth, of the great pile of his sketch-books which Mr. Ruskin allowed me carefully to examine before they were thrown open to the world, and of some scattered letters which good fortune directed into my hands, reinforced by the assistance of a few of his intimate friends who loved truth too well to conceal either good or bad, I was enabled by degrees to piece together a memoir, of which the present is a revised and considerably enlarged edition.
