Joseph Mallord William Turner RA known as J. M. W. Turner and contemporarily as William Turner, was an English Romantic painter, printmaker and watercolourist, known for his expressive colourisation, imaginative landscapes and turbulent, often violent marine paintings.
Turner was born in Maiden Lane, Covent Garden, London, to a modest lower middle-class family. Intensely private, eccentric and reclusive, Turner was a controversial figure throughout his career. He left behind over 2,000 paintings and 19,000 drawings and sketches. He had been championed by the leading English art critic John Ruskin from 1840, and is today regarded as having elevated landscape painting to an eminence rivaling history painting.

About Line Fishing, Off Hastings
"Line Fishing, Off Hastings" by J.M.W. Turner is a famous painting by the artist depicting fishermen trying to do fishing in a stormy evening when the waves are too high. This painting shows inshore fishermen using a baited line in the English Channel. Turner based it on a sketchbook drawing of 1816 and a watercolour of 1818. A critic described the painting as 'a beautiful marine piece'. It is probably a pair with the painting St Michael's Mount, Cornwall, also in the V&A. About the Art Prints
