William Turner was born on April 23, 1775. He is one of the most significant English artists, who was admitted to the Royal Academy in 1789. Alongside his studies, he trained with the watercolorist Thomas Malton. Turner first participated in a Royal Academy exhibition with his watercolors in 1790 and submitted his first oil painting for exhibition there six years later.
After a period of travels that took him to Scotland, Switzerland, and France, he opened his own gallery in 1804, where he sold his paintings. In 1807, he was appointed a professor at the Royal Academy and began Liber Studiorum, a catalog in which he classified painting under certain criteria. A trip to Italy in 1819/20, during which he spent an extended period in Rome, led to a shift in Turner's style, causing his works to increasingly depart from realism. This change provoked intense criticism, and some of his later works were not exhibited at the Royal Academy due to their dissolution of subject matter.
William Turner is considered a pioneer of modern painting as he revolutionized traditional landscape representation and redefined the possibilities of light and atmosphere in art. His later works, in which he nearly completely dissolved the subject matter, demonstrate his innovative handling of color and form. His famous paintings like The Slave Ship or Rain, Steam and Speed vividly showcase his ability to capture movement, light reflections, and dramatic weather conditions. This nearly impressionistic technique made him a source of inspiration for later artists like Claude Monet and other Impressionists.
Turner later frequently traveled to Southern Europe, particularly to Venice, which captivated him with its ethereal colors and inspired several paintings. The artist died on December 19, 1851, in Chelsea, London.
Although Turner was both admired and heavily criticized during his lifetime, his influence on art history is indisputable. His works are now housed in the world's most prestigious museums. Turner's bold color experiments and his almost abstract style were far ahead of his time, establishing his reputation as one of the greatest painters of Romanticism. His ability to capture natural forces and atmospheric moods in spectacular light displays makes him one of the most fascinating artists in art history to this day.
