1834 J.M.W. Turner Watercolor "The Gutter"
Item Details
Description
This Watercolor was executed in 1834 and Titled "The Gutter, Monk Nash. Wales". Subject measures 11.5" x 8.75" and remains in excellent condition. This piece comes with exceptional provenance including Antique Hammer Galleries Letter, a John Anderson Panflit on the Artist, and Gimbel Brothers New York Sales Tag as shown in the attached photos. While J.M.W Turner was universally accepted as one of the world's greatest landscape painters, it is not so generally known that he also drew and painted every worthwhile object which made a special appeal to him because of its beauty and interest, and the possibilities of his own skill in depicting it. In the personal collection of his Drawings and Sketches left by him at his death, and which are now being exhibited at the National Gallery and the British Museum in London, no less than one hundred and seventeen different subjects appear which have no relation whatsoever to landscape. No less than twenty well-known authors have compared him to Shakespeare. Can anyone mention a name other than that of Turner in the entire history of modern art which has been deemed worthy of being linked in genius with that of Shakespeare? See attached photos as evidence of condition and details.
