Joseph Mallord William Turner, born in 1775, was an English romantic landscape painter, watercolorist, and printmaker. While he was widely known for his oil paintings, he was also considered to be a master of watercolor landscape paintings. Turner is commonly known as the "painter of light" because of his unique ability to capture darkness and lightness in a realistic way within his paintings. Some of his most famous pieces include "The Burning of the Houses of Lords and Commons" and "The Battle of Trafalgar."
