An exploration of Turner as an artist-traveler, in relation to two
important European harbor scenes This publication marks the return
to the United Kingdom, for the first time in over a century, of two
groundbreaking oil paintings by J. M. W. Turner (1775-1851), on
loan from The Frick Collection in New York: Harbour of Dieppe:
Changement de Domicile and Cologne, the Arrival of a Packet-Boat:
Evening. They were acquired by wealthy American industrialist Henry
Clay Frick in 1914 and have remained in the USA ever since. Painted
in the mid-1820s, Dieppe and Cologne exemplify Turner's lifelong
fascination with the subject of ports and harbors -past and present
-as dynamic, transitional places. Exhibited at the Royal Academy in
1825 and 1826 respectively, they represent in powerfully visual
terms the outcomes of Turner's regular sketching tours within
Europe that were central to his fame as an artist-traveler, as well
as his radical approach to color, light, and brushwork. This
sumptuously illustrated publication examines Turner's creative
process, and his use of sketchbooks and watercolors to capture his
ideas as he traveled. Published by National Gallery
