J. M. W. Turner (1775–1851)

English Romantic painter — master of light, atmosphere, and dramatic landscapes

William Turner is one of the most influential artists of the 19th century, known for transforming traditional landscape painting into something emotional, expressive, and almost abstract. He often painted storms, oceans, ships, and rising sunlight, showing not just a scene but the feeling of it — wind, light, mist, and movement.
