TITLE: PAINTING - Dogana and S. Maria della Salute - ENGLISH ROMANTIC

DESCRIPTION: TURNER. His best. In VENICE. See how light eliminates part of the subject (church of Santa Maria della Salute). Captures the nature of blinding light. Gets effect by painting lite on lite rather than contrasting lite and dark. Didn't paint thickly. No impasto for him. All WASHES. UNIQUE.
