The second short biography in Peter Ackroyd's Brief Lives series concentrates on the life and work of perhaps the greatest and most original of all English Painters. James Mallord William Turner was a Londoner through and through. His father had a barber's shop in Covent Garden, his mother came from a line of London butchers. He was brought up in Maiden Lane. He was short and pugnacious and, as Peter Ackroyd writes: "His speech was recognizably that of a Cockney, and his language was the language of the streets." His language was also the language of light, as exemplified in his most innovative paintings, which caused the critics of the day to come to blows. His dying words were: "The Sun is God." Turner entered the Royal Academy at 14, and a year later was exhibiting. His first loves were architecture, engraving and watercolours, and the country houses, cathedrals and landscape of England. He came to oils through his new passion for Italy. This is the biography that Peter Ackroyd was born to write: Turner's Englishness, his temperament and his London background lie at the core of Ackroyd's lively personal interest in and specialist knowledge of London's history."This book reveals the extent to which Turner wanted his paintings to communicate intellectually as well as emotionally; and how intensely involved he was with the culture of his times, using landscape as a vehicle for the deepest ...

"This book reveals the extent to which Turner wanted his paintings to communicate intellectually as well as emotionally; and how intensely involved he was with the culture of his times, using landscape as a vehicle for the deepest ruminations on society, politics and the human condition." "Sam Smiles discusses and illustrates the whole range of Turner's work, tracking his career from the 1790s to the 1840s, exploring the themes that motivated him and explaining his importance for subsequent generations."--Jacket.This is a reproduction of the original artefact.
