Joseph Mallord William Turner (23 April 1775 – 19 December 1851) was an English Romantic landscape painter, watercolourist and printmaker, whose style can be said to have laid the foundation for Impressionism. Although Turner was considered a controversial figure in his day, he is now regarded as the artist who elevated landscape painting to an eminence rivalling history painting.
This is a artist who is known for his beautiful Romanticism paintings, the kids do a great watercolor and learn about the artist and Romanticism.
Ideas for this project came from Usborne Art Treasury!
Thanks for this and the amazing slide show. We're working our way through '13 Art Movements Kids Should Know' and I do a related project each week. We will be using your lesson for the Romanticism project!
