J. M. W. Turner
Joseph Mallord William Turner (1775–1851) was a British painter renowned for his expressive use of light and color. Often regarded as the father of Impressionism, Turner's landscape paintings and seascapes captured the sublime beauty of nature and the effects of atmospheric conditions. His innovative techniques, particularly in watercolor and oil, pushed the boundaries of traditional landscape painting, earning him both acclaim and controversy during his lifetime. Turner's legacy endures as he remains one of the most celebrated artists in British art history.
