- Summary:
- "In this book, David Blayney Brown, one of the world's leading experts on Turner reveals the role watercolours played in Turner's life and work from those he sent for exhibition to the Royal Academy to the private outpourings in which he compulsively experimented with light and colour, which for a modern audience are among his most radical and accomplished works."--Jacket of first edition.
