Description: "DEATH ON A PALE HORSE" by J M W Turner Print "Although possibly incomplete, the subject can be identified as Death, the last of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse who announce the Day of Judgement (Book of Revelation). The choice may have been in response to the death of Turner's father in 1829, suggested by the unusual treatment which is both tender and menacing. Death appears, not as a triumphant, upright figure astride his horse, but as a phantom emerging from a turbulent mist: his skeletal form, arms outstretched, and draped submissively over the horse's pale back. Such disturbing visions were considered to embody the very concept of the Sublime."Up for sale is an illustration from a vintage art book dated 1975. The Print Measures Approximately 11.75 x 8.75" inches, on a semi-glossy paper. This would like fabulous if you framed it to match your decor. FYI: "Joseph Mallord William Turner RA (23 April 1775 – 19 December 1851), known in his time as William Turner,[a] was an English Romantic painter, printmaker and watercolourist. He is known for his expressive colourisations, imaginative landscapes and turbulent, often violent marine paintings. He left behind more than 550 oil paintings, 2,000 watercolours, and 30,000 works on paper. He was championed by the leading English art critic John Ruskin from 1840, and is today regarded as having elevated landscape painting to an eminence rivalling history painting.” ANY QUESTION PLEASE ASK!
