Na vida de Joseph Mallord William Turner
A vida inteira1806–1819
Work on the “Liber Studiorum”
For nearly twelve years he worked on about 70 mezzotints — the “Book of Studies”, inspired by Claude’s Liber Veritatis and meant as a manifesto of British landscape art; commercially it failed because of poor handling of sales and distribution, but it did elevate the prestige of landscape painting.
1808–1824
Summers at Walter Fawkes’s Farnley Hall
From 1808 to 1824 he stayed many summers at Farnley Hall near Otley in Yorkshire with its owner Walter Fawkes, becoming almost part of the family, with a room assigned for his exclusive use.
1816
Hazlitt on the pictures of the elements
The essayist William Hazlitt wrote that Turner “delights to go back to the first chaos of the world”, when the waters were separated from the dry land and light from darkness, and described his landscapes as “pictures of nothing, and very like”: pictures of the elements of air, earth and water.
