Angel in the Sun - Turner's Vision of History
Title:
Angel in the Sun - Turner's Vision of History
Finley, Gerald
$75.00

McGill Queens University Press, 1999. 247 pages. Some shelf wear and foxing on inside of DW.

Turner was deeply affected by the world in which he lived, the sciences that explained it, and the conflicts and accomplishments of his society. He wove these strands into the dense fabric of the historical pictures he created, pictures that were extremely varied, complex, original, and controversial. In this text, Gerald Finley untangles the various thematic strands running through Turner's art, including the intersection of private and public histories, classical and biblical history and contemporary events, and science and religion, and shows how Turner's use of light and colour played an important role in conveying these ideas.
