Inhaltsangabe

The collection of works by Turner in the Ashmolean Museum includes drawings and watercolours from all periods of his life. Among the earliest works are the series of ten watercolours commissioned by the University Press at Oxford to be engraved for the Oxford Almanack between 1799 and 1811, and these are followed by a representative selection of sketches and finished works, most given to the University of Oxford by the artist's friend and champion, John Ruskin. Among them are 23 watercolours from the celebrated series, The Rivers of France, the most exquisite of all Turner's watercolours.
This handbook comprises an introductory text setting the collection within the context of Turner's life and Ruskin's interest in him, and reproductions of 34 works, among them three early oil paintings on extended loan from the Loyd Collection.
