Joseph Mallord William Turner, Norham Castle, Sunrise c.1845. Tate.
Tate Britain is home to the largest collection of works by Joseph Mallord William Turner (1775–1851).
Described as the ‘father of modern art,’ Turner shocked with his unique brushwork and use of colour. His portrayals of the modern world were unlike any seen before. As one of the country’s greatest painters, he fittingly lends his name to the contemporary Turner Prize.
