Description

Published to coincide with the 250thth anniversaries of their births, alongside a major exhibition at Tate Britain, explore the work, careers and relationship between two of Britain’s best loved landscape painters, J.M.W. Turner and John Constable. "Gives art’s spiciest rivalry a thrilling new twist" — The Telegraph "Stunning... Pictures you will seldom if ever have seen before" — The Times "An epic confrontation between the ultimate British artists" — The Independent Drawing on the very best of their work, the book reveals the ways in which the painters offered two competing and highly original visions of landscape painting, both of which remain powerfully resonant today. Each challenged the artistic norms of their time while also responding to the transformative social, political, economic and environmental developments of the early nineteenth century. Defying convention, they proved that landscape painting could be a vehicle for profound reflections on life as they saw it, paving the way for landscape art to become a vital arena for artistic expression. Despite all their differences, the ways in which these painters presented a radical challenge to artistic norms led them to be described by their contemporaries in similar ways. They were simultaneously celebrated as the two great ‘originals’ of contemporary British art but also attacked as eccentric outsiders whose work was increasingly puzzling and illegible. Turner and Constable will offer a chance to directly compare highlights from the full span of the two artists’ careers. This fresh and ambitious presentation of their work will inspire many to re-connect with these beloved artists anew and equally inspire those who are less familiar with their work to appreciate its vitality, soul and enduring power.
