The book Life And Work Of J. M. W. Turner was written by Charles Alfred Swinburne in 1902. It is a comprehensive biography of Joseph Mallord William Turner, a British artist who is widely regarded as one of the greatest painters of all time. The book covers Turner's life from his early years as a child prodigy to his rise as a successful artist, and his later years as a reclusive and eccentric figure. Throughout the book, Swinburne provides detailed descriptions of Turner's artwork, and offers insights into the artist's creative process and techniques. He also explores Turner's personal life, including his relationships with women, his financial struggles, and his reputation as a difficult and sometimes volatile personality. The book is written in a lyrical and poetic style, reflecting Swinburne's own background as a poet and writer. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the life and work of J. M. W. Turner, and provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of one of the most influential artists of the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
