About William Turner
1775-1851
English oil and watercolour painter. He mainly painted landscapes, history paintings and seascapes.
Already at a young age, William Turner achieved the highest technical perfection and was appointed to the Royal Academy as one of Britain's most important artists; nine years later he was one of its members.
Experiments with new techniques and an intensive study of Goethe's theory of colour, together with extensive travels, sparked an important change in Turner's style. He courageously abandoned the established rules of pictorial tradition and Object Realism and devoted himself intensively to the effects of light and movement.
Turner earned much criticism for his completely new type of painting. But his precise observation of nature and the flowing light in the paintings of the great Romantic paved the way for the Impressionists and the development of modern painting.
The majority of his works are exhibited in the Tate Gallery in London.
Giclée = derived from the French verb gicler "to squirt, to spray".
The Giclée method is a digital printing process. It is a high-resolution, large-format print produced with an inkjet printer using special different-coloured dye- or pigment-based inks (usually six to twelve). The inks are lightfast, meaning they are resistant to harmful UV light. They provide a high level of nuance, contrast, and saturation.
The Giclée process is suitable for art canvases, handmade paper and watercolour paper as well as silk.
An intellectual movement that spread from literature and philosophy into the visual arts, it was established around 1800 but failed to produce its own style in the visual arts.
The art of Romanticism was determined by the content of the awareness of life and the sensations triggered by it. Inner feelings and emotions, dreams and fantasy, world and nature, the power of myth, and the striving towards infinity became central themes. The actual realm of Romanticism lies in painting and drawing. Landscape, in particular, came to the fore as a recurring theme, depicting the relationship between humans and nature while reflecting emotional states. Alongside a newfound appreciation for nature, there was a renewal of religious attitudes and a return to the past, tradition, history, old legends, and fairy tales, as well as to the art of old masters and epochs. Especially in the case of Germany, this was strongly national-oriented art.
The main representatives in Germany include C.D. Friedrich, P.O. Runge, J.A. Koch, M. v. Schwind, and the Nazarene group of artists. The French branch of Romanticism, which followed different tendencies than its German counterpart, is best exemplified by the art of Delacroix.
Romanticism lasted until around 1830.
