Robin Redbreast 14 x 17.7cm

Joseph William Mallard Turner was one of the worlds most influential artists, especially among artists.

I came across these exquisite water colours, which go beyond that of scientific recording, in a discarded library book.

These works are from Turner's book of Birds done whilst staying at Farnley Hall. I believe the originals can be viewed at Leeds City Art Gallery.

I have made these available for educational use only.
