J.M.W. Turner, Burning of the Houses of Parliament


I adore Turner's work. I think he was really ahead of his time. This painting is just beautiful and I love the abstract quality of the brush work. The way that he is able to make the colors glow with that brilliant yellow is just phenomenal. I love that you can feel his passion through his paintings. Really fantastic image and I got to see it recently in Philadelphia.
