{"product_id":"turner-in-his-time-andrew-wilton-9780500238301","title":"Turner in His Time","description":"J. M. W. Turner is one of the most famousand most mysterious of artists. His paintings are among the masterpieces of Western art, and the range of his work and the originality of his technique make him a giant. He kept his private life a secret, and his contradictory personality, his love of mystification, and his revolutionary manner of painting all fascinated his contemporaries and still arouse our curiosity today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Andrew Wilton's knowledge and enthusiasm uniquely qualify him to introduce us to the artist's life, and he concentrates here on original sources: Turner's writings, in the form of letters, notes, and verse; impressions recorded by his contemporaries; and reviews of his exhibited works. A comprehensive illustrated chronology covers Turner's travels, exhibitions, and projects, and includes portraits of his friends and patrons, views of places with which he was associated, and works by other artists who played a crucial role in forming his style and thought.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andrew Wilton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0500238308\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780500238301\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Thames \u0026amp; Hudson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.24lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.28h x 10.72w x 1.13d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2007 pg. 68","brand":"Andrew Wilton","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43990202482943,"sku":"9780500238301","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_03acfcce-f9df-4a99-b999-8542ffe44b80.jpg?v=1683303582","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/turner-in-his-time-andrew-wilton-9780500238301","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
