Along with two major oil paintings, one from early in his career and one late, the Taft Museum of Art holds ten watercolors by James Mallord William Turner (British, 1775‱851).
Spanning the first half of the Nineteenth Century, these watercolors depict landscapes of Switzerland, Germany, England, Scotland and Italy. Historically, they broke new ground in the artistic fields of book illustration, travel views and the watercolor medium itself.
