“J. M. W. Turner | State of the Field Symposium” (Yale Center for British Art)

This two-day symposium will consider the state and meaning of scholarship on J. M. W. Turner (1775–1851), one of Britain’s most celebrated artists. Thinking through the extensive Turner historiography, this symposium will explore some of the key ideas, underlying assumptions, and future directions of research. Panelists will consider the place of their research within the broader field of British studies.  

 

This symposium will be held online on Friday, September 22, and Saturday, September 23, 2023.
