Turner: The Late Seascapes

One of the greatest of all British artists, Joseph Turner's paintings evoke the power of nature to a degree matched by few others.

This exhibition will present a rare and exciting chance to see forty-one of his oils and watercolours.

I saw the collection on Wednesday and HIGHLY reccommend it!

My favourite of the exhibit was "The Eve Before the Storm", a composotion based on Noah and the flood... ethereal is my word de jour! ::):
