A World Ablaze in Sunlight – A Turner Landscape

According to Payne Knight, a great collector of his works, if there was ever an epithet for J.M.W. Turner, it was “the eye and the intellect” firing on all fronts, and “his sun” – the great destroyer and the great renovator. “By the magic of his pencil, we are brought to regions of such bold and romantic magnificence, and introduced to effects of such rare and awful grandeur…for design, for coloring, for strength of conception, for depth of feeling and felicity of execution – for originality, truth and variety, it places him indisputably…at the head of all English artists.” (Walter Fawkes)
