Notes On The Liber Studiorum Of J. M. W. Turner is a book written by the renowned British artist Joseph Mallord William Turner. Published in 1885, the book is a collection of notes and observations made by Turner on his own work, specifically on his series of etchings and engravings known as the Liber Studiorum. The Liber Studiorum was a project that Turner worked on for over 20 years, from 1807 to 1825. It consisted of a series of prints that were meant to showcase Turner’s skills as a landscape artist and to provide a visual guide for other artists. The prints were divided into six categories: Historical, Mountainous, Marine, Pastoral, Architectural, and Elevated or Epic. In Notes On The Liber Studiorum, Turner provides insight into his creative process and the inspiration behind each print. He also discusses the technical aspects of printmaking, such as the use of different types of paper and ink. The book is illustrated with reproductions of the prints, as well as sketches and drawings by Turner. Overall, Notes On The Liber Studiorum is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Turner’s work or in the history of printmaking. It provides a unique glimpse into the mind of one of the most influential artists of the 19th century and sheds light on the techniques and processes used in printmaking during that time period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
