Turner and his painters
Hundred paintings and graphic works

Turner’s (1775-1851) English landscape paintings established his reputation as one of the finest landscape artists of the XIXth century, he was highly unusual in that he responded to the works of the old Masters and his contemporaries throughout his lengthy career..
He was constantly in search of inspiration and turned first to the work of other young English painters working in watercolours, later examining the work of Dutch landscape painters and then the Italian painters.
This exhibition is organised by Tate Britain, London and the Museo Nacional del Prado, Madrid.
