Summary:

Over the last several years the renowned painter Ken Howard (b. 1932) has been exploring the Swiss journeys of one of his most illustrious predecessors as a Royal Academician, using J.M.W. Turner's travel in the country as his inspirations for an exciting new body of work. This publication contains an authoritative introduction to Turner's experience of these breathtaking lakes and mountains by Ian Warell, some 100 striking new paintings by Ken Howard, numerous photographs of him at work in the Alpine landscape, and a series of appealing commentaries by the artist and Jürg Gabathuler, who has facilitated these Swiss expeditions.
