Turner: The Man Who Painted Britain

J. M. W. Turner is regarded by many as Britain's greatest landscape painter, yet his private life was full of contradiction. This film explores the extraordinary story of an artist of extremes, blending drama with art history. It reveals the man behind the luminous seascapes and skies that changed the course of painting. Rich and evocative, it brings both the painter and his masterpieces to life. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
