THE COMPLETE WORKS OF JOHN RUSKIN: TURNER AND HIS WORKS

TURNER AND HIS WORKS

By John Ruskin

Englands greatest artist J.M.W. Turner (1775-1851) is explored in this lecture by one of Turners staunchest supporters, the art critic John Ruskin. Taken from Ruskins Complete Works, the 1853 lecture on Turner offers an introduction to his art from a critic who knew the artist. Ruskin also considers the forerunners of Turners art, in aesthetic areas such as colour and light.

Fully illustrated with works from each stage of J.M.W. Turners career. 108pp. www.crmoon.com
