{"product_id":"turner-9780500204597","title":"Turner","description":"\u003cp\u003eFew British artists have ever achieved such a wide range of style in oil painting, watercolor, drawing, and engraving as J. M. W. Turner. This classic book in the World of Art series traces the artist's career from youthful, picturesque views and watercolors of Gothic ruins, to romantic landscapes and historical compositions, to the darker abstracts of his later career. Though these late works were incomprehensible to his contemporaries, Turner is understood today as one of the greatest British painters because of these pioneering explorations into abstraction, which prefigured the art of the twentieth century. In \u003cem\u003eTurner\u003c\/em\u003e, Graham Reynolds weaves together the artist's biography and criticism of his work through all phases of his career, paying particular attention to the importance of foreign travel and the influence of Claude Lorrain and Nicolas Poussin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFirst published in 1969, \u003cem\u003eTurner\u003c\/em\u003e has long served as an outstanding introduction to Turner's life and art. Now with full-color illustrations and a new introduction by David Brown, this updated and revised edition reflects recent discoveries and interpretations of Turner's work, and will serve as the best available study of the artist for a new generation of readers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Thames \u0026amp; Hudson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/14\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780500204597\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.90w x 0.60d","brand":"Graham Reynolds","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45169486626997,"sku":"9780500204597","price":16.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_bcf3f3f5-4fe1-40b4-a2bb-2ebf3e0af120.jpg?v=1741703286","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/turner-9780500204597","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
