約瑟夫·馬洛德·威廉·透納，英國zui為、技藝zui為精湛的藝術傢之一，19世紀上半葉英國學院派畫傢的代錶，在西方藝術史上無可置疑地位於zui傑齣的風景畫傢之列。

在透納之前，風景畫隻是作為宗教畫的背景而存在，所以在畫壇的地位並不高。而透納的齣現，瞭風景畫在整個畫壇的地位，使風景畫和宗教畫以及肖像畫站在瞭同一個高度。

Then there was light: Turner's irridescent tableaux

In the work of Joseph Mallord William Turner (1775-1851) lies an impact akin to a sudden acquisition of sight. His lscapes seascapes scorch the eye with such ravishing light color, with such elemental force, it is as if the sun itself were gleaming out of the frame.

Appropriately known as “the painter of light”, Turner worked in print, watercolor, oils to transform lscape from serene contemplative scenes to pictures pulsating with life. He anchored his life work to the river Thames to the sea, but in the historical context of the Industrial Revolution, also integrated boats, trains, other markers of human activity, so as to juxtapose the thrust of civilisation against the forces of nature.

This book covers Turner's illustrious, wide-ranging repertoire to introduce an artist who combined a traditional genre with a radical modernism.
