The Tate, UK, houses the largest collection of Turner in the world. Thanks to its exceptional loans, the Jacquemart-André museum is hosting an exhibition of 60 watercolors and some 10 oil paintings, most of which have never been presented in France.
This retrospective by Joseph Mallord William Turner (1775-1851) shows the work of the greatest representative of the golden age of English watercolor.
This great romantic painter exploited the effects of light and transparency on English landscapes or Venetian lagoons.
Turner knew how to ignite the canvases with his wonders.
The incomparable richness of his palette envelops his universe forever in the magic of golden dreams and mysterious mists.
