A letter signed by Monet,Pissorrao,Degas,Renoir and others says as much,?A group of French painters,united oin the same aesthetic aims? applying themselves with passin to the rendering of form in movement as well as the fugitive pehenomena of ight,cannot forget that they have been preceded inthis ath by a greate master of the English,the illustrious turner.? Turner,the son of a baber was something of a rodigy-exhibiting his work at the Royal Academy when he was merely 15. He had his studio whenhe was 18 and was member of the RouyalAcademy at 27. He travelled extensively in Europe. Considered one of the founders f English watercolour painting. Turner experimented withlight and colour and the theory that yellow ws the closest colour towhite light in painting. Turner captured the elements-be in the raging sea or flashes of lightning on an increasingly inventive canvas. Turner was in the habit of putting the crucialfinishing touches to a painting after it was hung up. In the words of Charles Eastlake,none ogf his ?Poictures could be had worked onthem whenthey were on the walls of Royal Academy.?
