1819 -1840 · Lagoon, Salute and city of light
Noon, sunset, party on the Riva and approach to Venice show Turner making the city an apparition where architecture, water and color exchange their contours.
Turner visited Venice in 1819, 1833 and 1840. He already knew Canaletto, Claude Lorrain and the images of the city, but contact with the lagoon transformed his language. At midday, the facades dissolve into an almost white light. At sunset, a fisherman and a few boats are enough to measure the golden water. The festival on the Riva degli Schiavoni combines ceremony, crowds and architecture with a mobile atmosphere. Approach to Venice stages the arrival: the domes and campaniles emerge like a promise above the lagoon. Santa Maria della Salute, the Dogana, San Giorgio and the Bridge of Sighs return in numerous watercolors and paintings. Turner does not remove the topography; it makes it dependent on the hour, the tide and the moving gaze. Its late Venice becomes a place where artistic memory, tourism, history and light overlap. The selection "Venice by JMW Turner" notably compares Venice - Noon and Venice - Sunset, with Fisher. His reading favors the material.
Turner's Venice is never still: even the strongest palace depends on the tide, the reflection and the time of day.
