J M W
TURNER RA
(1775-1851) was born in London, England on April 23rd 1775. His
father was a wigmaker and barber in Covent Garden. He studied at
the Royal Academy schools and was to become one of the foremost
painters in oils and watercolours of his generation. It was in 1806
that W F Wells suggested that Turner's work could reach a much
wider public, were they to be engraved and published in book form.
Turner etched the plates himself under and conscientiously
supervised every stage of their production, it was even said that
he trained an entire school of engravers. This process ensured that
the engravings of Turner's work were indeed as effective and
desirable as his paintings.
From
the age of 19, until his
death in 1851, Turner was involved in the production of over 800
prints based on his paintings, watercolours, and drawings. He was
intimately concerned with the production and reworking of plates
after his works, often providing copious instructions and
suggestions to the engravers. It was through the dissemination of
these prints that Turner gained his reputation as one of the
greatest and best-loved English painters. Even after his death his
romantic paintings served as a continued source of inspiration for
printmakers across Britain and the Continent. His grand paintings
were reproduced in almost every medium available, from large steel
plates, to mezzotints and chromolithographs. His works appeared as
book illustrations and vignettes, as well as large separately
published fine art prints. Turner's impact on the history of
British painting is intimately connected with the print trade.
Reproductive examples of his work were eagerly viewed and collected
by the public, establishing his reputation as the greatest
landscape painter of his generation. Turner not only viewed
printmaking as an invaluable source of advertising, but valued the
medium as a true art form. Prints remained a major focus throughout
Turner's long career and helped shape his work as much as they
advocated his talent.
Cooke's
Picturesque views of the
Southern Coast of England and Picturesque Views of England and
Wales. The latter was first published in 1827/8 and was the first
main publication to include Turner's work.
WB
Cooke's Rivers of England and
published in 1823
Picturesque
views became highly
fashionable in the 1820s and this encouraged Turner to continue to
produce work for these publications. Although these were in book
form they were merely plates with text between covers. The problem
that he had with his views was that he wasn't particularly a figure
painter, therefore, he had to crowd the foregrounds of his pictures
with interesting images in order to satisfy the public. Being an
artist rather than a topographer, Turner tended to include a
certain amount of visual illusion in his work.
In his
lifetime,
Turner
travelled extensively throughout Europe, particularly after the end
of the Napoleonic Wars. All the time producing images of landscapes
and towns. The Turner Gallery was published in 1875, after his
death and includes 120 fine steel engraved plates, covering a range
of his works. From views and landscapes in Great Britain, Germany
and Italy, to studies of ships, mythical scenes and scenes from
classical Rome.
